Endowment fund
The Applied Health Sciences Endowment Fund (AHSEF) was established in the Fall of 1994 as a student-based financial support system created to enhance the academic environment of all undergraduates in the Faculty of Health.
Each undergraduate student registered in the Faculty of Health contributes to the fund, as a donation to the University of Waterloo through AHSEF. The money is a voluntary contribution used to support student-initiated projects with an academic and student life focus, and it is the hope of AHSEF that all undergraduate students in the Faculty of Health view the fund as a significant contribution to help themselves and their fellow classmates receive the best possible education.
Liaison librarians
Jackie Stapleton, Liaison Librarian, provides library research and teaching support for Kinesiology and Health Sciences students, staff and faculty. Liaison librarians provide guidance on finding and/or citing information for course assignments, papers and presentations. Specialized support for conducting advanced literature searches for theses, review papers and article publications is also available.

In addition to the University's Graduate Student Association, students can connect with classmates via the Kinesiology Graduate Student Association.
