Overview
Areas of study can include topics broadly related to the natural health and physical sciences, such as biomechanics and ergonomics, exercise and environmental physiology, sensory-movement behaviour, physical activity and health promotion, coaching, and sport psychology. Graduate students are drawn to the School of Physical and Health Education to work with specific research faculty members and benefit from their expertise in specific content areas.
Learning outcomes
The MSc Kinesiology program at Nipissing University operates using a mentor model. The benefits of a mentor model are numerous, including clarification of research and other funding support at time of application and focused supervision from the time of registration. The MSc program prepares graduates for further research training (e.g., doctoral and post-doctoral studies) and a broad range of careers in Kinesiology and related fields, such as medicine, health promotion, rehabilitation, sport, fitness, education, government, and industry.
Post-Graduation Opportunities and Careers
With an MSc in Kinesiology, our graduates will be prepared for a broad range of careers as professionals in advanced research positions in Kinesiology and related fields, such as: health promotion, rehabilitation, occupational health and safety, sport, fitness, and education.
Many of our MSc graduates will continue to further education in Kinesiology and other health professions (e.g., PhD, Medicine, Public Health, Physiotherapy, Occupational Therapy) and will achieve advanced qualifications (e.g., Registered Kinesiologist, Certified Professional Ergonomist, Certified Exercise Physiologist, Certified Mental Performance Consultant).
