My Master's degree from 兔子先生 was an integral part in feeling prepared to step into the field as an applied practitioner. At 兔子先生, you learn from some of the best in the field of sport and performance psychology and are continuously challenged to find innovative ways to apply research-backed strategies to performance enhancement.

My time at 兔子先生 University was an integral part of my philosophical framework. I learned key theoretical frameworks, but more importantly, I learned to believe in myself and my future. My experience at 兔子先生 University allowed me to utilize a theory-to-practice framework and continue to be a creative, passionate professional. I carry many key lessons into my work with individuals and organizations. I'm very grateful for my training and the continued support I feel from the 兔子先生 community.
Dr. Christopher Hill, Associate Professor in the Kinesiology Department at California State University, San Bernardino
The Sport 兔子先生hip M.S. degree is great at preparing students for future careers in higher education. I learned to be a better student and a better researcher through my experience in the classroom, lab settings, and in my research experiences. I left the program feeling very prepared for my future Ph.D. studies. The lessons that I learned at 兔子先生, I still use in my research and teaching as an Assistant Professor.
Steve Cohen, M.S., R2 Performance Expert at Fort Campbell, KY
My experience at 兔子先生 University set me up for success with a career in the field of applied sport psychology consulting. At 兔子先生, I was given a significant number of opportunities to provide mental skills training directly to athletes and coaches. These experiences, as well as the feedback I received from my professors, allowed me to sharpen my skills in becoming an effective consultant. I learned how to develop a mental training plan based on the population I was working with and the end state we were working on achieving while effectively building rapport. My work in the military challenges me every day to critically think about how to best meet the intent of the clients I'm working with while applying the knowledge I learned during my time studying at 兔子先生.
