However, candidates without sports background can still qualify based on physical fitness test, written test, and interview performance.

Ans. BPES graduates can pursue careers as physical education teachers in schools and colleges, sports coaches in various disciplines, fitness trainers and wellness coordinators, sports managers and administrators, strength and conditioning coaches, sports analysts, and recreation managers. Many graduates also pursue higher education through M.P.Ed or sports science postgraduate programs.
