Department Introduction

1. Our goal is to cultivate sports professionals equipped with the highest level of leadership, based on the knowledge and principles of sports science, who can enhance the athletic performance and health of those who engage in physical activity and sports.

-We cultivate professional exercise instructors by teaching them the basic skills, applied techniques, and specialized theories of leisure and professional sports.

-We cultivate health instructors by teaching them fundamental knowledge of the human body and specialized knowledge of the body's adaptive responses to exercise.

2. To cultivate sports science professionals, we strive to cultivate specialized subjects and engage in diverse activities across the three areas of research, education, and service.

To enhance students' practical skills, we encourage diverse activities such as badminton, weight training, gateball, and soccer, and support academic activities in various fields.

To this end, our department implements its educational goals under the motto "SCIENTIFIC & FUN."

SCIENTIFIC & Fun

SCIENTIFIC stands for: S (Service), an education that cultivates students with a good heart and the ability to serve others; C (Challenging), an education that fosters a spirit of challenge; I (Inclusive), an education that fosters comprehensiveness; E (enthusiastic), an education that fosters passion; N (natural), an education that fosters naturalness; T (Theirs), an education that fosters their own (students); I (inventive) an education that fosters inventiveness; F (flexible), a harmonious education; I (improved), an education that fosters improvement; and C (communication), an education that fosters interaction between faculty, students, and local communities. Fun, an education that is enjoyable.

To cultivate sports science professionals, our outstanding faculty and students are dedicated to three areas: research, education, and service.

• 
  Beyond being a leading university in Jeollabuk-do, faculty and students have become one, striving to become the best sports science department in Korea. This is a "sports science department where professors and students unite," where students receive in-depth lectures based on theory and practice throughout their four years of university, and where they can discuss and discuss academic and career issues through counseling.
• 
  To enhance students' practical skills, we encourage diverse practical activities, such as badminton, weight training, gateball, and soccer, and provide diverse academic support. We offer special lectures on practical certifications, sports IT, game analysis, and sports-related certifications, which are not often covered in class. We plan to continue offering diverse special lectures to enhance students' academic activities. Furthermore, we have established a sports science and English study group and are offering scholarships and other support measures to enhance both academic and practical skills.
• 
  We are making significant efforts to revitalize local sports.Our faculty members, as executives of sports teams and organizations in Jeollabuk-do, are dedicated to revitalizing local sports. All faculty members have participated in the Jeollabuk-do Elite Talent Development Project, supported by the Sports Talent Development Foundation. Recently, we have also been making significant efforts to apply sports science in the field.

1. Goals and Needs

Sports science is a field that explores and applies various scientific approaches to achieve optimal performance and effective movement in sports and physical activity situations. This project, conducted by the Department of Sports Science, aims to provide students with information for practical application in various fields of sports science through lectures and practical training by sports science researchers and experts. Furthermore, it aims to operate a practical training program for obtaining specialized certifications. Through this project, we aim to increase understanding of sports science, stimulate learning, and lay the foundation for increasing employment rates in various sports science fields.

2. Main Promotion Contents

• -Program to Strengthen Undergraduate Major Skills
  As part of our undergraduate sports science training program, this department will conduct presentations and practical training by external experts. To encourage student interest and participation, we plan to promote the program one week in advance on the school and department websites.
• -Practical Training Program for Major-Related Certifications
  To promote the practical training program for major-related certifications, we plan to offer a Red Cross lifeguard certification training program.

3. Promotion methods and strategies

• -In addition to encouraging student participation in lectures and practical training, we plan to establish a follow-up education system with experts and instructors. A mentoring system will be established between lecturers for students who wish to participate.
• -Participation in each lecture and program will be approximately 40 undergraduate students in the major competency enhancement program and 20 in the practical training program for major-related certification.
  
• -After each lecture, students will be asked to evaluate the lecture and write a reflection report.

4. Expected effect

• -This project is expected to enable students to deepen their specialized skills and enhance their self-directed learning abilities, fostering an understanding of sports science and the ability to apply it in the field. 
• -Based on this practical application, it is expected that students will be able to explore diverse career paths and thereby increase their employment rates.
