Kinesiology Master of Science (Thesis Option) Program
Department of Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology | Faculty of Science
91ÅÝܽ Calendar 2010-2011
Program Requirements
This program requires 18 units minimum of graduate courses and a thesis. If a supervisory committee deems that preparation is inadequate, more than this may be required. At least 12 of these units must be from graduate kinesiology courses.
Students complete two of
- KIN 801-3 Seminar on Research in Kinesiology
- KIN 802-3 Statistical Applications in Kinesiology Research
and four additional courses, at least two of which must be from the following.
- KIN 810-3 Integrative Muscle Physiology
- KIN 812-3 Molecular and Cellular Cardiology
- KIN 821-3 Environmental and Exercise Physiology
- KIN 825-3 Motor Learning and Control
- KIN 840-3 Human Biomechanics
- KIN 850-3 Control Systems in Health and Disease
- KIN 861-3 Neuroscience
- KIN 870-3 Modeling of Physiological Systems
Remaining units may be selected from any KIN graduate courses, and any other graduate courses at the University or other universities with prior graduate program committee approval. Courses will be chosen by the supervisory committee after consultation with the candidate.
For further information and regulations, see graduate general regulations.
Thesis Requirements
The school encourages early thesis proposal submission, which is circulated to faculty and resident graduate students, and formally presented for open forum discussion. A formal defence of the completed thesis is made to the examination committee at an open forum. The thesis proposal must precede the defence by at least four months. For regulations, see graduate general regulations.
Time Required for Degree
Requirements are normally completed in six terms.
Academic Requirements within the Graduate General Regulations
All graduate students must satisfy the academic requirements that are specified in the Graduate General Regulations (residence, course work, academic progress, supervision, research competence requirement, completion time, and degree completion), as well as the specific requirements for the program in which they are enrolled, as shown above.
