To qualify for the Bachelor of Kinesiology, students must:
1Courses taken while studying at another institution on a Senate-approved exchange program satisfy this requirement.
Students must also successfully complete the following credits:
At the beginning of the second year of study, students must select one of three streams: Neuromechanical and Physiological Sciences, Social and Behavioural Sciences, and Multi-disciplinary Science. Students may change their stream of study after consulting with the School's Undergraduate Advising Centre. The following notes apply to the three streams of study:
All Bachelor of Kinesiology students must complete WRDS 150.
As there are only a small number of courses offered in the evenings and during Summer Session, students will experience difficulty in completing a Bachelor of Kinesiology on a part-time basis. Students interested in part-time study should discuss their proposed studies with the School's Undergraduate Advising Centre.
KIN at the 100-level are generally considered prerequisite to 200-level courses, and 200-level courses are generally prerequisite to 300-/400-level courses. 300-/400- level courses may be taken in any sequence unless otherwise specified. Many KIN courses have specific course prerequisites. Students who do not have proper prerequisites for a course may have their registration cancelled automatically. Course prerequisites apply to both part-time and full-time students.
Many 300-/400-level courses require 100-/200-level prerequisites; therefore all non-KIN electives should be selected carefully.
