Human Kinetics is concerned with understanding capacities for, and limits of, human movement at different ages and with the role of physical activity in human health. Through the use of electives, students may structure a program emphasizing biomechanics and ergonomics, human population biology or nutrition, exercise and metabolism.
Admission to this major in semester 3 normally requires a minimum semester average of 70% in the previous 2 full-time semesters. Students declaring this major require the signature of the coordinator.
If lacking the fundamentals of word processing, spread sheet use and data management, the student should elect 27-120 as early in the program as possible.
See admission statement above.
Students must complete 75-4201/2 in either year 3 or year 4.
Students must complete [2.00] credits from Arts or Social Science courses. It is recommended that [0.50] of the [2.00] be in philosophy. A minimum of [2.00] from Human Biology (i.e. 75-XXX) restricted electives at the 300 or 400 level are required. A minimum of [2.00] science credits from 400 level courses must be selected. [1.00] are to be chosen from acceptable science courses.
Students choosing Sports Injury Management must follow the schedule of studies for the area of emphasis.
This is a collaborative effort between the Sheridan College of Applied Arts and Technology 3-year diploma program in Sports Injury Management and the University of Guelph B.Sc. Human Kinetics major program. Semester 2 B.Sc. students may be selected for admission and concurrent registration over the next four year period to the Human Kinetics major in this area of emphasis and the Sheridan College of Sports Injury Management program. Since space in this area of emphasis is limited, admission is competitive and is based on academic achievement and an interview process. Students will enrol in courses at Guelph for semesters 1 to 6 and at Sheridan for semesters 7 to 10. Upon successful completion, students will earn both a University of Guelph B.Sc. degree and a Sheridan College diploma. Contact Dr. B.A. Wilson, ext. 2297, for additional information.
*These courses are taught by Sheridan College and the course descriptions appear in the Sheridan College calendar.
