Graduate Programs

The School of Human Kinetics welcomes your interest in its Graduate Program and hopes you find the following web pages and links to be of assistance in your decision making process.

To provide you with a rich academic experience, the School has gone to great effort to attract and retain some of the top faculty in the area of Human Kinetics.

The graduate program follows a mentorship model, and in order to be admitted a faculty member must agree to act as a research supervisor and admit you into their laboratory. This model provides the student with the unique experience of working on current research projects alongside top researchers. Students should contact a potential research supervisor before attempting to gain entry into the program.

You are encouraged to review the graduate program webpages and thoroughly familiarize yourself with our program and faculty. Our staff and faculty are available to answer any questions you may have. You may also wish to view the HKIN Graduate Studies Handbook for additional infornation.
