Certificate in Health, Wellness & Sport in Society

The Certificate in Health, Wellness & Sport in Society is a 24-credit undergraduate certificate at Saint Mary's University designed for students who want to deepen their understanding of health, wellness, and sport within their social context. It combines an interdisciplinary curriculum of three required courses (9 credit hours) with 15 elective credit hours drawn from multiple academic disciplines, some of which can count toward both a student's major and the certificate. The certificate is intended to prepare students for further study and careers in health, wellness, and sport-related fields. To enter the program, students must be majoring in another department or program at Saint Mary's, have completed a minimum of 18 credit hours, and hold a GPA of at least 2.0 (C). The certificate is completed alongside a student's primary degree rather than as a stand-alone credential.
