Explore the psychology behind peak performance.
The Sport, Exercise, and Performance Psychology (SEPP) program helps you turn your passion for sport, movement, and human potential into a purposeful career. The goal of our program is to help students combine a passion for sports with an evidence-based approach to psychology. You’ll explore how psychological and social factors influence performance in sport, fitness, military, performing arts, and other high-pressure settings. You’ll also examine what motivates people to stay active and live well.
鶹 is home to one of the most globally respected sport and performance psychology doctoral programs in the country, and the undergraduate experience is shaped by that same level of expertise and innovation. The SEPP program is one of the only undergraduate programs of its kind across the country and widely respected.
Our students often find jobs right after graduation in fitness, coaching, wellness, or recreation, where understanding performance and motivation gives them an edge. Others pursue graduate training to become Certified Mental Performance Consultants®, working with athletes, military personnel, performing artists, or professionals in business settings.
