Therapeutic Recreation has been a part of FIU for over 15 years, this program along with Sports Management and Parks and Recreation have been turning over professionals on a local and national level.
Therapeutic Recreation is practiced in clinical, residential and community settings to help people with physical, mental, emotional and/or social disadvantages to develop and use leisure in ways that enhance their health, functional abilities, independence and quality of life.
The sport management track provides advanced study and experiences that enhance knowledge in developing promotions, sports programs, serve as facility managers, coaches, and business managers related to the ever expanding and diverse business of sports.
Parks and Recreation serves this country on a local and national level as well, providing knowledgeable and competent park managers and leisure professionals to serve in our community, state parks, and national parks, to name a few.
These three professions although different in many ways all focus on enhancing the lives of individuals, with or without disabilities, young or old, those active in their communities, and those with active lifestyles along with providing opportunities to anyone who wishes to include leisure in their lives.
We, the students, graduates, professionals, and concerned members of the community, ask for your help. Please sign this petition to ensure that this integral service to our society remains a part of the FIU community.
