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.	You study living organisms and how they work at every level, from whole animals and plants down to cells, genes, and molecules. This is a research-focused program where you can choose to include paid work terms alongside your courses, giving you real lab or field experience in biology-related workplaces. It suits students who want a solid foundation in biology and enjoy the idea of testing what they learn in actual research or applied settings.
