BA/BS in Kinesiology

Kinesiology at the University of Toronto is a Bachelor of Kinesiology Specialist program offered at the St. George campus through the Faculty of Kinesiology & Physical Education. It is grouped under the university's Health & Life Sciences area of study, described as covering the science of living systems through research, laboratory work, and interdisciplinary study, applied here to the study of human movement. Ontario applicants need an Ontario Secondary School Diploma with six courses at the 4U/M level, including English, one mathematics course from Calculus & Vectors or Advanced Functions, and one science course from Biology, Chemistry, or Physics; an introductory kinesiology or exercise science course is recommended but not required. A supplemental application is required as part of admission. The program suits students interested in the scientific study of human movement, exercise, and physical function, offered as a single Specialist-level credential rather than through separate Major or Minor tracks, with an emphasis on research- and laboratory-based learning.
