| What it is | This program trains you to teach health and physical education to junior and intermediate students (grades 7–10), combining teacher education with specialized study of how exercise, sport science, and health information systems affect wellbeing. Unlike a general education degree, it embeds science content directly into teaching methods so you graduate both certified to teach and grounded in the health sciences behind what you teach. It suits students who want to work with teenagers, care about fitness and wellness, and prefer a focused teaching path over a broad one. | You study how to manage sports facilities, recreation programs, and leisure services for communities and organizations. Unlike a general sports science program, this degree focuses on the business and administrative side — scheduling, budgeting, staffing, and customer experience — rather than personal fitness or athletic performance. The co-op work terms, built into the four-year degree, let you apply management skills in real sports and recreation settings while you study. | You study how the human body moves and functions during physical activity, combining anatomy, physiology, and exercise science. Unlike a general kinesiology program, this applied stream emphasizes practical skills you can use directly in fitness, rehabilitation, or sports settings. It suits students who want a science degree but prefer hands-on learning over pure theory, especially if you want work experience built into your studies through the co-op option. |

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
