The Physical Education Teacher Education (PETE) major in the Department of Coaching and Teaching Studies of the WVU College of Physical Activity and Sport Sciences is focused on the preparation of physical educators (undergraduate level), master physical education teachers (graduate level), and physical education teacher educators (doctoral level). The PETE faculty's scholarly activities revolve around the study of physical education teaching and the preparation of physical educators. The PETE program has established itself as a national leader in teacher training in physical education. The program provides a unique approach to skill analysis with computer assisted interaction video instruction which enables students to gain needed hands-on experience in teaching movement and sport skills.
