About Kinesiology for Science Students
About Kinesiology for Science Students
Students planning a career in the health sciences, whether as a health professional or a biomedical researcher, will find courses in Kinesiology to be of interest from both theoretical and applied perspectives. There is a focus on the benefits of physical activity for health and well-being, as well as appropriate prescription of exercise in the treatment of various diseases, injuries and disabilities. Courses deal with both prevention and rehabilitation.
Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.) - Minor Kinesiology (24 credits)
The Minor Kinesiology is designed to provide students in B.Sc. programs with basic but comprehensive knowledge of scientific bases of human physical activity and its relationship with health and well-being.
Students registered in the Minor Kinesiology may not take additional courses outside the Faculties of Arts and of Science.
