TRINITY CHRISTIAN COLLEGE


BACHELOR OF ARTS IN SPORT STUDIES
ABOUT THIS PROGRAM

At Trinity, a B.A. in sports studies will help you develop a love for and appreciation of the bodies and minds the Creator has given us. You will not only earn a degree based on scientific study and research—you will learn from professors who see sports, leisure, and fitness through a biblical lens.
You will take classes that span psychology, physiology, and coaching theory, built on Trinity’s foundation of liberal arts. Along with our rigorous coursework, we have state-of-the-art facilities, including a Human Performance Lab that features a BodPod and VO2max testing. Our BodPod is one of only seven in the entire Chicagoland area, so we can provide incomparable hands-on experience for our students.
