| What it is | You study how the human body moves and functions during physical activity and exercise. This combines biology, anatomy, and sports science to understand muscles, joints, and fitness rather than just coaching or athletic training. The program includes a co-op work term, giving you practical experience in settings like rehabilitation clinics, fitness facilities, or sports medicine. This suits people interested in exercise science, health, or athletic performance who want both classroom learning and hands-on experience. | Kinesiology is the study of human movement, exercise, and the body's response to physical activity. You'll learn anatomy, physiology, nutrition, and psychology to understand how muscles, bones, and organs work during exercise and sport. This program suits people interested in fitness science, rehabilitation, sports performance, or health promotion who want a science-based foundation before pursuing careers like personal training, physiotherapy, or exercise coaching. | You study how the human body moves, functions, and performs during exercise and sport, combining biology with practical movement science. This program pairs a kinesiology degree with an international exchange or partnership component, giving you study or work experience outside Canada alongside your core training. It suits students interested in exercise science, sports medicine, or fitness who want global perspective and cross-cultural experience alongside hands-on study of human performance. |
