What it is	Kinesiology is the study of human movement, exercise, and sport from biological and physiological angles. You learn how the body works during physical activity, nutrition science, and injury prevention. The co-op option lets you earn work experience in fitness facilities, sports medicine, or health organizations while completing your degree, which suits students who want practical experience alongside classroom learning.	Kinesiology is the study of how the human body moves and functions during exercise and physical activity. You'll learn anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics alongside sport science to understand muscle, bone, and cardiovascular systems. This program suits students interested in exercise science, athletic performance, or health-related careers who want deeper biological knowledge than general physical education offers.	Human Kinetics is the study of how the human body moves and functions, combining anatomy, physiology, and exercise science. Unlike a general biology degree, it focuses specifically on physical performance, fitness, and health rather than broader biological systems. It suits students interested in exercise science, sports medicine, rehabilitation, or health-related careers who want a science-based foundation in movement and body function.	You study how the human body works during physical activity and exercise, with a focus on practical fitness coaching and health education. Unlike a straight kinesiology degree, this program combines your bachelor's degree with a separate diploma in fitness promotion, giving you both theoretical science knowledge and hands-on certifications suited to personal training and community health roles. It suits people who want a science-based foundation but also want direct, applied skills they can use right after graduation.
