Masters in Applied Sport Science
Overview
The Master of Science in Kinesiology with an emphasis in Applied Sport Science is designed as a terminal degree for students who feel that a Master's degree will enable them to meet their career goals and who do not intend to advance to the doctoral level. The program is flexible, allowing students to tailor the course of study to suit their specific interests and needs. Students may concentrate in one area of exercise science, such as exercise physiology, biomechanics, motor control or sport psychology, or they may choose to select courses from a variety of disciplines in order to provide a more varied, general body of knowledge.
