Kinesiology & Physical Education

With the growing awareness of the role that physical activity plays in the optimization of health and in the prevention and treatment of the leading causes of illness and disease, there is an increasing demand for professionals in the field of kinesiology and physical education. 

Students enrolled in BKin will take academic courses in human movement and its relationship to health. This program combines knowledge spanning the biophysical, psychological and physical cultural areas of study and includes course topics such as exercise physiology, psychology of injury and rehabilitation, motor learning and control, ethical issues and biomechanics.

Students have the opportunity to enrol in elective courses from other divisions within the University (in biology, psychology and the humanities, for example).
