The University of Alberta’s Master’s of Coaching (MCoach) degree allows students to advance their knowledge and understanding of coaching through a curriculum tailored to their specific learning needs and objectives. This leaves students with 15 remaining credits to complete. You may complete these credits by taking courses within the Faculty of Kinesiology, Sport, and Recreation or any other Department on the UAlberta campus. Six (6) credits may be completed as a Directed Study. Students can complete this course-based degree as either a full or part-time student. Full-time students are required to register in and successfully complete 9 credits per fall and winter terms. Part-time students must register in and successfully complete a minimum of 3 credits of coursework for at least one term in each September to August period to keep their program active. Students are not required to meet the Faculty’s residency requirement and have 6 years to complete the degree. The time to completion varies owing to part-time status of many students.
