X. Degree Programs
Bachelor of Science (B.Sc.)
Human Kinetics (HK)
Department of Human Health and Nutritional Sciences, College of Biological Science
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.
If lacking the fundamentals of word processing, spread sheet use and data management, the student should select CIS*1200 as early in the program as possible.
Major (Honours Program)
Students may enter this major in Semester 1 or any semester thereafter. A student wishing to declare the major must consult the Faculty Advisor. A minimum of 20.00 credits, of which 16.00 must be from the list of acceptable science courses, are required
Semester 1

| CHEM*1040 | [0.50] | General Chemistry I |
| MATH*1080 | [0.50] | Elements of Calculus I |
| PHYS*1070 | [0.50] | Introductory Physics for Life Sciences |
| 0.50 arts or social science electives | ||
| Students who are lacking one 4U /grade 12 course in Biology, Chemistry or Physics must take the equivalent introductory course in first semester. The required first-year science courses in that subject should be completed according to the revised schedule of studies available at: http://www.bsc.uoguelph.ca/revisedss | ||
