What it is	Criminology is the study of crime, criminal behaviour, and the justice system that responds to it. You'll examine why people commit crimes, how laws are enforced, and the social and psychological factors behind criminal activity. This program suits people interested in understanding crime from an academic angle rather than pursuing law or direct policing careers.	Human Kinetics is the study of how the human body moves and functions, combined with the social science of sport, recreation, and wellness in communities. This program emphasizes the people and policy side — why communities need programs, how to manage them, and the health and social benefits they create — rather than focusing mainly on exercise science or athletic performance. It suits students interested in building careers in public health, community recreation, sport management, or wellness program development.	You study outdoor recreation leadership while training to teach it to others at the intermediate level. The program combines exercise science and hospitality knowledge with hands-on skills in activities like hiking, camping, and water sports. It suits people who want to work outdoors leading groups and teaching adventure skills, rather than in a traditional classroom.
