What it is	This four-year program teaches you how to manage recreation facilities, sports programs, and leisure services. You study exercise science, human biology, and business skills needed to run gyms, community centres, sports leagues, or tourism operations. It suits people who want to work in the sports and recreation industry but prefer management and planning over personal training or athletic competition.	This program lets you study how societies, economies, and cultures interact across borders, drawing from fields like history, anthropology, economics, and international development. You'll examine global issues through multiple lenses rather than specializing in one discipline. It suits students curious about world affairs and international problems who want flexibility to explore different approaches before deciding on a deeper focus.	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.
