Kinesiology students will study the science of human movement, physical activity, and their relationship to health, well-being and performance. This program explores how the body moves by studying: Anatomy; Physiology; Biomechanics; Ergonomics; Musculo-skeletal Injuries; Motor Development and Control; Nutrition ; Adaptive Physical Activity; Health, Wellness and Fitness. Students will learn about the psychological, sociological and cultural factors that influence physical activity in all populations. The curriculum of the HBK degree is based upon recommendations from the National Conference of Canadian Universities and Colleges. Courses offered in Kinesiology cover a broad base of human movement related topics and the combination of required and elective courses gives the student a wide perspective on the multi-disciplinary nature of the field. Students must take all required Kinesiology courses totalling 11 full course equivalents plus three required FCEs from the Biology, English and Chemistry departments. One and one-half FCEs are required in Education courses prior to entry into the Professional Program. Elective courses may then be chosen from within the school or outside of the school depending upon the student's career objectives. A total of 22 FCEs plus Kinesiology 4193 are required for graduation. To graduate, students must have a minimum of B (70%) cumulative average in all Kinesiology courses included in the 22 FCEs counted towards the degree and a minimum of 65% cumulative overall average.
