Preparing you for professional practice
A multi-disciplinary study of human movement, the Master of Science Kinesiology (MSc Kinesiology) program focuses on the theoretical and applied aspects of human performance in a variety of settings.聽 The combination of theory and application, together with development of research skills, results in an outstanding academic experience and preparation for professional practice or further study.
Because Dalhousie has links with many institutions and organizations within Halifax and beyond, students are able to make important connections, resulting in valuable and meaningful collaborative learning opportunities.
