World's first department of Kinesiology
And the first non-medical school in Canada to house a School of Anatomy. This means that you'll have the chance to study human anatomy using cadavers.
Hands-on learning is one of the biggest components of our program. You'll have plenty of opportunities to gain practical experience in your field in your labs, through volunteering, and co-op jobs.
Learn from some of the most innovative professors in Kinesiology, like Dr. Richard Hughson, who works with NASA to help understand the effects of weightlessness on astronauts.

Meet current students
“One of the most memorable experiences I have here is having the opportunity to work in the anatomy lab. This work involves teaching, dissecting, and helping host high school groups and open house events.
The academic advisors, and others in the department, are passionate about what they do, and often go out of their way to make your educational experience successful and enjoyable.”
- Jonathan, Kinesiology
