Spring 2008 Undergraduate Calendar


KINESIOLOGY

Program Information

The emphasis in the Bachelor of Human Kinetics degree is on providing students with an understanding of human physical activity in its broadest sense, rather than upon the details of professional practice and teaching methodologies.

A Bachelor of Human Kinetics degree may be earned either through a regular, eight-term program of study, or through the twelve-term Co-operative Education Program, which combines classroom and related work term experiences. In both programs, students follow a common core of Kinesiology and other courses and then specialize in one of two honours Majors: Movement Science or Leisure and Sport Management.

Human Kinetics "Core" Courses and Areas of Study

Requirements for degree programs in Kinesiology make reference to the following groups of courses:

Bachelor of Human Kinetics "Core" Courses: 95-210, 95-211, 95-220, 95-230, 95-240, 95-250, 95-260, 95-265, 95-269, 95-270, 95-280, 95-285, and 55-204.

New Human Kinetics "Core" Courses as of Fall 2008: 95-265, 95-220, 95-211, 95-280, 95-XXX Health and Wellness (new course to be developed), 95-250, 95-269, 95-XXX Introduction to Exercise Physiology (new course to be developed), 95-270; plus five of 95-210, 95-230, 95-240, 95-260, 95-285, 95-XXX Introduction to Ergonomics (new course to be developed), 95-XXX Introduction to Leisure Studies (new course to be developed, or 95-350.

Movement Science Major Courses: 95-301, 95-302, 95-310, 95-333, 95-360, 95-362, 95-370, 95-374, 95-380, 95-400, 95-410, 95-453, 95-460, 95-463, 95-465, 95-471, 95-480, and 95-498.

Leisure and Sport Management Major Courses: 95-311, 95-320, 95-340, 95-345, 95-350, 95-351, 95-355, 95-405, 95-440, 95-450, 95-451, 95-452, 95-454, 95-473, 95-476, and 95-498.

Practice, Theory, and Analysis Courses: 95-381 through 95-398.

Any remaining courses numbered 95- not included in the groups above are available to students in any Kinesiology major, subject to individual course requirements.

Upon completion of the Human Kinetics "Core" requirements, students will select a major from Movement Science or Leisure and Sport Management. This selection must be done through the Office of the Registrar prior to registration for the fifth semester, or at the end of the fourth semester.

Kinesiology courses at the 300 and 400 levels are restricted to students who have declared their major in either Movement Science or Leisure and Sport Management. Students from other Faculties(3rd year or above) may take these courses with permission of instructor.

The usual sequence of "Core" courses through the first four academic semesters is:

FIRST YEAR

95-210, 95-211, 95-230, 95-240, 95-265, 95-280, and 55-204, and three non-Kinesiology options, at least one of which should be a Science.

SECOND YEAR

95-220, 95-250, 95-260, 95-269, 95-270, 95-285, and four non-Kinesiology options, at least one of which should be a Science.
