Bachelor of Health Sciences – Kinesiology and Health Promotion (Honours) (PBHSK)

Program Description Sheridan's Kinesiology and Health Promotion program takes a multidisciplinary approach that borrows from the strengths of traditional kinesiology and health sciences curricula and enhances them with business management and lab experiences. Through two field placements (Year 2 and 4) and a 14-week paid cooperative work term (Year 3), students will have the opportunity to observe and apply theories studied in class, gaining invaluable real-world experience.

Throughout this program, students will learn: • Biomechanics • Ergonomics and clinical exercise physiology • Nutrition • Strength and conditioning • Wellness coaching and group fitness leadership • Lifestyle assessment and counselling

Graduates of this program can receive professional certifications through the National Strength and Conditioning Association, Canadian Society for Exercise Physiology and the Ontario Kinesiology Association. As this program is a recognized undergraduate degree, students also qualify to move on to post-graduate training at universities in Canada and the United States. This program contains a mandatory internship for all students during the winter semester (January–April) between the 5th and 6th academic semesters (3rd Year).
