| What it is | Kinesiology is the study of human movement, exercise, and how the body works during physical activity. You learn anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, and exercise science through classroom and lab work. It suits people interested in fitness, sports performance, rehabilitation, or understanding how exercise affects health. | This program combines psychology, biology, computer science, linguistics, and philosophy to study how the mind works and how we think, learn, and use language. Unlike a straight psychology or computer science degree, cognitive science integrates all these viewpoints to understand cognition from multiple angles. It suits people curious about the science of thinking itself, who want breadth across disciplines rather than depth in just one. | You study both how to teach junior and intermediate students and how psychology applies to sport and athletic performance. This concurrent program lets you earn your teaching credential while specializing in sport psychology rather than completing a general teacher education route. It suits people who want to teach physical education or health class and understand the mental side of athletic development. | You study psychology combined with applied health sciences — how human behaviour, biology, and social factors shape health and illness. Unlike a straight psychology program, this stream emphasizes practical health applications and the ability to work across healthcare and social systems. The co-op option lets you work in healthcare settings, clinics, or community agencies while studying. It suits students interested in both understanding the mind and applying that knowledge to real health problems. |
