| Description | The thesis-based degree program employs a multidisciplinary approach that focuses on the study of human performance from a scientific perspective. The program of study centres around eight content areas: adapted physical activity, biomechanics, sports medicine and rehabilitation, exercise physiology, motor control and learning, psychology of physical activity, sociocultural, and health promotion. When making course selections, students choose a discipline orientation that involves an in-depth study of Kinesiology in one or more of the above areas of content.
