Program details

Overview

The Bachelor of Kinesiology at the University of Winnipeg is offered as a four-year degree, with an Honours option. A distinct structural feature is the Canadian Memorial Chiropractic College Academic Pathway, under which students complete three years at the University of Winnipeg before moving into the Doctor of Chiropractic Program at CMCC, receiving both the Bachelor of Kinesiology and a chiropractic degree after seven years in total. Core subject areas include human anatomy, biomechanics, sport and exercise psychology, exercise physiology, motor development, aging, behaviour change, and nutrition, taught on the Winnipeg campus. The program page lists application areas such as personal training, exercise prescription and fitness assessment, health and physical activity promotion, sport administration, children's physical literacy programs, inclusive physical activity programming, senior fitness and wellness, and corporate fitness or ergonomic programs. It is also described as a foundation for graduate study and professional schools in medicine, pharmacy, physiotherapy, occupational therapy, nursing, and physician-assistant training. The program suits students interested in human movement, health promotion, and applied physical activity, whether their goal is direct entry into fitness and health-related work or further professional or graduate study.

Requirements

Admission Requirements: The program page defers to The University of Winnipeg's general admission requirements and strongly recommends, without requiring, that applicants complete either Applied Mathematics 40S or Pre-Calculus Mathematics 40S. Applicants whose first language is not English, and who are not from an English-exempt country, must meet the university's English proficiency requirement, set out on The University of Winnipeg's own admission requirements page: IELTS Academic 6.5 overall; TOEFL iBT 4.5 overall with no component below 4.0 for tests taken on or after January 21, 2026 (86 overall with no component below 20 for tests taken before that date); Duolingo English Test 120; Pearson PTE Academic 58; CAEL 60 (CAEL online 70); LanguageCert Academic 67; or Cambridge C1 Advanced/C2 Proficiency 180, with results no more than two years old. International applicants apply online through the university's application portal and pay a non-refundable CAD $120 application fee, with official transcripts sent directly from the issuing institution to the Admissions Office; recommended international deadlines are June 15 for Fall (September), October 15 for Winter (January), and February 15 for Spring (May), and applying three to four months ahead is encouraged to allow time for study-permit processing.

Application Details

Start Date: September, January and May
Application Deadline: Domestic applicants (Canadian citizens, permanent residents and refugees) apply directly to the University of Winnipeg: for the Faculties of Arts, Business and Economics, Kinesiology and Science the suggested deadline is July 2 for Fall (September) entry, November 1 for Winter (January) entry and March 1 for Spring (May) entry; the Faculty of Education recommends March 1 for high-school and mature applicants, with a final deadline of June 1 subject to space. International applicants are advised to apply by June 15 (Fall, shown on the live page as an 'extended' deadline), October 15 (Winter) or February 15 (Spring). All of these are suggested rather than firm cut-offs: late applications may still be considered, and admission runs on an effectively rolling basis until a term is full. These are institution-wide dates; this programme publishes no deadline of its own.
