  • A grade 12 U-level Math or grade 11 or 12 U-level Physics are recommended to prepare for senior Kinesiology subjects in biomechanics, research methods, and statistics.
  • It is strongly recommended that students interested in the BSc program take an additional grade 12 Math or Science like Calculus, Pre-calculus, or Chemistry.
  • SCH4U is a prerequisite for first-year Chemistry courses.
  • ENG4U or FRA4U
  • One Mathematics 4U course
  • Two of the following: SBI4U, SCH4U, SPH4U, SPH3U, PSK4U
  • If you do not have the mathematics prerequisite, you may take the replacement course at the University of Ottawa either the summer before or during your first year.

What it isThis program teaches you to become a registered nurse — you learn patient care, medical science, clinical skills, and how to work in hospitals and clinics. It combines classroom learning in anatomy, pharmacology, and nursing theory with hands-on practice in real healthcare settings. The program suits people who want direct patient contact, can handle emotional and physical demands, and are comfortable with science and responsibility for others' wellbeing.You study nursing, which means learning how to care for patients, understand human biology and health conditions, and develop the clinical skills you'll use in hospitals and clinics. This four-year program combines classroom learning with hands-on practice in real healthcare settings from early on, rather than delaying clinical work until later years. It suits people who want direct patient care, can handle shift work and emotional demands, and are comfortable with both science and people skills.Kinesiology is the study of human movement, exercise, and sport from biological and physical perspectives. You'll learn anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, and exercise science to understand how bodies move and respond to physical activity. The BA offers broader flexibility in electives; the BSc includes more chemistry, physics, and advanced quantitative analysis, preparing you better for research or health science pathways. It suits people interested in exercise science, athletic performance, rehabilitation, or health promotion who want science grounded in practical movement.This is a combined five-year degree that starts with physical activity science and fitness studies, then moves into occupational therapy — the practice of helping people regain function and independence through purposeful activities and exercises. Unlike completing these as separate degrees, this program integrates them from the beginning so your early coursework in anatomy and exercise science directly supports your later therapy training. It suits students interested in rehabilitation and working hands-on with people to improve their physical and mental well-being.
