Bachelor of Health Science (Honours) in Kinesiology

Kinesiology focuses on human movement and optimizing performance and quality of life. This comprehensive program covers the behavioral, biomechanical, physiological and psychosocial aspects of human health and performance. Knowledge is applied to several settings including rehabilitation, adapted physical activity, sport, exercise, and general health in people of varying abilities. You will be prepared for provincial and national professional examinations.

Three specializations are offered:

Exercise Science
You will focus on exercise physiology, biomechanics, neuroscience and exercise rehabilitation.

Health and Wellness
You will study the psychosocial aspects of kinesiology, particularly areas such as health promotion, health policy, and coaching.

Rehabilitation
An agreement between the university and the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College, located in Toronto, Ontario, enables qualified students to complete a Bachelor of Health Science (Honours) degree with a major in Kinesiology, and a Doctor of Chiropractic (DC) degree in seven years instead of eight.
