Online
Master of Education Degree in Health and Kinesiology
Description
of the Program
The
UT Tyler Department of Health and Kinesiology collaborates with the
University of Texas TeleCampus and five other University of Texas institutions
(Arlington-UTA; El Paso-UTEP; Pan American-UTPA; Permian Basin-UTPB;
and San Antonio-UTSA) to provide Internet-based courses that enable
students to earn a master's degree entirely via online distance learning.
This collaborative program is known as the Kinesiology Online (KINO) Program. An individual may earn UT Tyler's M.Ed. Degree in Health
and Kinesiology entirely via online courses offered as part of this
program. Application and admission to the M.Ed. Program and degree requirements
are the same regardless of whether the curriculum is completed entirely
online, entirely on campus, or with a combination of online and on-campus
classes. To earn the M.Ed. Degree in Health
and Kinesiology via the Kinesiology Online Program, a student must complete
at least 12 hours of courses taught by UT Tyler faculty.
Following is a list of courses that are periodically available online.
Some are UT Tyler courses and some are offered by other University of
Texas institutions that are part of the Kinesiology Online Master's
Degree Program. These courses may be used to fulfill requirements of
UT Tyler's M.Ed. Degree in Health and Kinesiology, or as electives
in other degree programs with consent of the student's advisor. Descriptions
of these online courses are listed under Kinesiology Online Program
in the Course Description Section of the catalog.
