I would like to have a job working with athletes, helping them to
train and maximize athletic performance or with rehabilitating sports
injuries. I already have a BA in education with a major in Physical
Education.
I don't know which kind of MA I can study which will let me reach
these goals
I think there are several fields where you can do an MA degree related
to this kind of work, but I'm confused about what the differences are
between them.
First, please let me know if there is a discipline I'm not thinking
of, I list the one's I know below.
Second, I have some questions below about the disciplines that would
be very helpful to have your thoughts about. Here are my questions:
