What it isHuman 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.Health Sciences is a broad study of how the human body works and what affects health and disease. You'll take courses in biology, chemistry, and related subjects, with options to specialize as you progress. The co-op stream lets you alternate between classroom learning and paid work terms at hospitals, research labs, or health organizations, giving you real experience before graduation. This program suits students interested in understanding health from a scientific angle, whether or not they're certain about medicine or a specific health career yet.
