What it isYou study how to teach physical education and health to junior and intermediate students, combined with foundational exercise science. Unlike a regular education degree, you complete your teacher training and subject specialization at the same time, so you graduate ready to teach these subjects immediately. This suits students who know they want to teach PE and health in secondary schools and want an integrated pathway rather than separate degrees.You study the science of human movement and fitness combined with teaching and coaching methods. This program integrates exercise physiology, biomechanics, and sport psychology with practical skills in coaching athletes and leading fitness programs. Unlike a pure kinesiology degree, this one prepares you directly for careers coaching teams or instructing fitness classes. It suits people who want to work in sports, recreation, or wellness settings and learn both the scientific reasoning and hands-on teaching side.A Biology degree at Glendon lets you study how living things work, from cells and molecules to whole organisms and ecosystems. You'll take core biology courses and choose from specialized areas like genetics, microbiology, human biology, or biotechnology. The iBSc variant integrates bilingual (English–French) instruction throughout your degree, rather than offering biology taught only in English.
