| What it is | **Bachelor of Science in Kinesiology and Health Studies (BSc(Kin))** You study how the human body moves and functions, combining anatomy, physiology, and exercise science with health topics. This is more focused on the science of physical activity and wellness than on running sports organizations. It suits people interested in fitness, rehabilitation, athletic training, or health careers who want a science-based foundation. **Bachelor of Sport Management and Leadership (BSM)** You learn to manage sports organizations, teams, and facilities, mixing business skills like finance and marketing with sports-specific leadership. This differs from kinesiology because you focus on the business and organizational side rather than the body's mechanics. It fits people who want careers running sports programs, managing facilities, or leading sports-related businesses. | Human 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. | You study how to teach physical education and health to middle and high school students, grounded in the science of human movement, exercise, and sport. Unlike a straight kinesiology degree, this program combines your science coursework with teacher training and practicums so you earn your teaching credential while you study. It suits students who want to work with teenagers in schools and have a genuine interest in both the science behind fitness and health education. |

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.
