| What it is | Kinesiology is the science of human movement and exercise. You study how the body works during physical activity, combining biology, physics, and sport science to understand muscles, bones, energy systems, and athletic performance. This program suits people interested in exercise physiology, sports medicine, coaching, or fitness rather than those pursuing medicine or pure biology. | 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. | Kinesiology is the study of human movement, exercise, and sport from biological and physiological angles. You learn how the body works during physical activity, nutrition science, and injury prevention. The co-op option lets you earn work experience in fitness facilities, sports medicine, or health organizations while completing your degree, which suits students who want practical experience alongside classroom learning. | Kinesiology is the study of human movement, exercise, and how the body works during physical activity. You learn biology, nutrition, and sport science through lab work and courses. The co-op option lets you alternate school terms with paid work in fitness, rehabilitation, or sports settings, giving you real experience alongside your degree. |

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.
