| Field of Study: | Kinesiology and Exercise Science
|
| Description: | Optimize health and performance and prevent injury and illness by understanding human movement in all its complexities and applications. Redeemer's Kinesiology program is broad in scope, with opportunities to learn about movement from the perspectives of physiology, anatomy, psychology, sociology, biomechanics, lifestyle and behaviour and ultimately, provides further appreciation to how all humans are fearfully and wonderfully made.
Right from the start, small class sizes allow for meaningful class discussion, lead by professors who are actively researching in the field and excited to include students in their work. First-year courses provide foundational skills and knowledge in human anatomy, focusing on how the body moves and functions in relation to fields of health, clinical science and practice, disease prevention, lifestyle, and sport. Many classes, already in your first year, include a lab component where you'll participate in real-world experiments and use professional-grade equipment.
Kinesiology is offered as a Bachelor of Kinesiology degree program and as an honours major in the Bachelor of Science degree program. |
