Abstract

The value of Mongolia is a citizen who stays fit and healthful. Physical education /PE/ plays a significant role in improving the health and well-being of the students and youth who will be the leaders of the country’s future development. We developed and conducted a survey of 8 questions to determine whether the set of physical education classes meets the student's desires, interests, and needs because physical education and sports play an important role in students’ development /maturity/ and the formation of character. The survey was completed by 1,000 students from the National University of Mongolia /NUM/ and the Mongolian National University of Education /MNUE/. The aim of this study was to analyze whether the norm of credit hour package, the choice of sports and the content of PE meets or not the modern student’s needs since the students' desires, interests, and needs are important to improve the organization of physical education classes and implementation of PE curricula at universities. The results of the study show that the types of PE classes offered to students, the gymnasium, the field, and the planning of credit hours for PE classes are different. This is a defective side in the implementation of the goal of improving the physical development and fitness of students in PE.
