Biography

DR. BRUCE PIETZ Teaching Area(s): Physical Education Title: Assistant Professor of Human Performance and Sport Business Courses Taught: Physical Education Career I discovered the physical education major in my sophomore/junior year in college. Even as an undergraduate student, I wanted to explore a profession in higher education. During my first year as a graduate student, my advisor asked if I ever considered pursuing a doctoral degree and teaching at the college level. After that discussion, I knew what and where I wanted to go. Professional Accomplishments My proudest accomplishment was being awarded the Outstanding Professor Award by the Student-Athlete Advisory Committee while teaching a Baldwin-Wallace College. Teaching Style I prefer to teach using the active learning method. Active learning provides hands-on application activities to cover course content instead of lecturing. Best Part of the Job Watching my students develop and apply their teaching skills throughout the physical education major is the best part of my job. The Love of KHIC As crazy as this may seem, the Kolenbrander-Harter Information Center (KHIC) is my favorite building. It is a new, beautiful and architecturally stunning building. I seem to find new areas of this building every time I go there. Yet despite this, it is the most confusing and challenging building on campus. KHIC has it all! Variety of Offerings I feel that the University of Mount Union is unique with its wide diversity of major and course offerings while still being a small and close-knit campus. Preparing Students The University of Mount Union prepares its students for work after college by offering challenging and relevant majors and providing ample field experience opportunities. This provides a unique combination of course content and real world experience regardless of your chosen major.
