| What it is | This program teaches you how the human body moves and functions during exercise, sport, and daily activity, combining anatomy, physiology, and biomechanics. Unlike a general health science degree, kinesiology focuses specifically on physical movement and performance. The co-op option lets you work for employers in fitness, rehabilitation, or sports settings while completing your degree, suiting students who want practical experience alongside classroom learning. | You study how the mind affects athletic performance and how sport influences mental health and behaviour. This combines psychology courses with exercise science, so you learn both the theory of human behaviour and how it applies specifically to athletes and fitness. It suits people interested in both psychology and sport who want to work with athletes, coaches, or in fitness and wellness settings. | You study psychology combined with applied health sciences — how human behaviour, biology, and social factors shape health and illness. Unlike a straight psychology program, this stream emphasizes practical health applications and the ability to work across healthcare and social systems. The co-op option lets you work in healthcare settings, clinics, or community agencies while studying. It suits students interested in both understanding the mind and applying that knowledge to real health problems. | Kinesiology is the scientific study of human movement, exercise, and how the body works during physical activity. You'll learn anatomy, physiology, biomechanics, and exercise science through lab work and practical classes. This program suits students interested in sport science, fitness, rehabilitation, or health promotion who want a science-based foundation rather than coaching or athletic training alone. |
