In the thesis-based master’s and doctoral programs in Kinesiology and Health Studies, students have the opportunity to specialize their knowledge and research within their chosen discipline, with the guidance and supervision of faculty members.
Graduate students conduct independent research projects in a broad range of kinesiology and health studies areas, like epidemiology, nutrition and exercise, neuro-rehabilitation and physical activity, leisure and therapeutic recreation, disability studies, and sport and recreation management.
You can focus your studies in one of four areas:
- Bio-Sciences in Sport, Exercise, and Health
- Humanities and Social Sciences in Sport, Leisure, Exercise and Health
- Management in Sport, Leisure, Exercise, and Health
- Health Studies
Learn the fundamental elements required for the planning, implementation, and information analysis for research projects designed to seek solutions to specialized problems. You will learn research methodologies and how to design a research project.
Through your studies, you will gain a deep understanding of a particular topic or phenomenon, which could be the foundation of a research career.
Graduates from our master’s and doctoral programs are prepared to enter practical settings, such as healthcare, sport and recreation management, and therapeutic recreation.
