The School of Kinesiology offers graduate students original investigations (M.A., M.Sc., Ph.D.) in biological, behavioural, and socio-cultural research in Kinesiology. The School also offers a course-based, advanced study program in the Master of Kinesiology (MKin). Students entering the M.A. program are normally expected to have a background in social sciences, while students applying to the M.Sc. program are expected to have a background in the natural or health sciences. Potential MKin students are required to have a B.Kin. or its equivalent.
Are you interested in coaching science? If so, the preferred degree path is the non-thesis MKin degree. Some recent sample major paper titles are: “Exercise Considerations for the Prenatal Client”, “Goal Setting for Collegiate Golf”, and “Injury Prevention in Amateur Ice Hockey”. The faculty member most closely associated with this degree is Dr. Maria Gallo. Information on the program structure is available on our Master’s Program page.
