Michigan Tech’s MS program in Kinesiology provides advanced research and education related to health and human movement. The degree includes both a thesis and course work option. The thesis option includes course work and research focused in the areas of exercise and integrative physiology, biomechanics, or human performance. The course work option includes a more directed course work plan that is capped with an extended internship experience in cardiac rehabilitation, strength and conditioning, or fitness training/management.Kinesiology is a highly interdisciplinary field, and our graduate students work with faculty and students from not only the Department of Kinesiology and Integrative Physiology, but also other units across campus such as Biological Sciences, Applied Cognitive Science and Human Factors, and Biomedical Engineering. We encourage not only traditional research, but also a spirit of entrepreneurialism with both students and faculty. A total of 30 credits are required for the Kinesiology MS program. An accelerated degree option will be available beginning in Fall 2015 for qualified Michigan Tech students in which up to 6 approved credits can be double-counted towards undergraduate and graduate degrees.
