Kinesiology and Health Science All BSc Honours degree candidates must complete a specified core of academic and practicum courses, and, depending on individual interests, personal objectives and the stream selected, complement the designated requirements with optional courses from within and outside the kinesiology and health science curriculum. The streams available for proceeding towards a BSc Honours in the Specialized Honours program are a) health and kinesiology and b) applied certificate. The Health and Kinesiology Stream is particularly suited to students aspiring to careers related to teaching or recreation or for those desiring a generalized approach to kinesiology and health science. The Applied Certificate Stream focuses on specific professionally related areas; a student in this stream graduates with a certificate as well as a BSc Honours. Kinesiology and health science may also be combined with the study of another science major or a minor within the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science in a BSc Honours Double Major or Honours Major/Minor program. On entering the University and selecting kinesiology and health science as a major, first-year BSc Honours students are automatically enrolled in the Health and Kinesiology Stream of Specialized Honours. Students who hope to proceed in Honours Double Major or Honours Major/Minor programs select 1000- level science and mathematics options (within this stream) which are appropriate for the second major or the minor. After successful completion of 24 academic credits with a cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of at least 5.0 (C+), students declare their choice of program and stream. Entrance into the Applied Certificate Stream requires an application at this time - contact the School of Kinesiology and Health Science regarding application requirements and procedures. Note: Students may only be enrolled in one certificate stream at a time. Honours Programs Note: Academic courses in kinesiology and health science have the prefix "KINE". Practicum courses have the prefix "PKIN". i) All BSc Honours degree candidates must complete the kinesiology and health science core which includes an academic core: SC/KINE 1000 4.0; SC/KINE 1020 5.0; SC/KINE 2000 3.0; SC/KINE 2020 3.0; SC/KINE 2031 3.0; SC/KINE 2049 3.0; SC/KINE 2050 3.0; SC/KINE 3011 3.0; SC/KINE 3012 3.0; SC/KINE 3020 3.0; SC/KINE 3030 3.0; SC/KINE 4010 3.0; SC/KINE 4020 3.0; and a practicum core: SC/PKIN 7500 2.0; and at least two practicum credits in each of the following practicum areas: gymnastics/dance, aquatics, team sports, individual and dual sports, and track and field. ii) All BSc Honours degree candidates must comply with general regulation 4 (see the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science Regulations Governing Undergraduate Degree Requirements section of this Calendar) by completing the following (in addition to the Kinesiology and Health Science core):
iii) All BSc Honours degree candidates, in accordance with their declared Honours program, must comply with general regulation 6 (see the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science Regulations Governing Undergraduate Degree Requirements section of this Calendar) and, in so doing, must also satisfy the course, credit and standing requirements specified below. To declare Honours requires successful completion of at least 24 credits and a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 5.0 (C+) over all courses completed, subject to the exceptions in the notes below. To proceed in each year of an Honours program requires a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 5.0 (C+) over all courses completed, subject to the exceptions in the notes below. To graduate in an Honours program requires successful completion of all Faculty requirements and departmental required courses and a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 5.0 (C+) over all courses completed, subject to the exceptions in the notes below. Notes: 1. In addition, a minimum cumulative credit-weighted grade point average of 6.0 (B) over all science (SC) courses completed is required to declare, proceed and graduate in (i) the Honours Double Major program where biology is the other major, and (ii) the Honours Major/Minor program where biology is the major. (The minimum 6.0 (B) science grade point average is not required where biology is the minor.) 2. Students admitted to York University prior to 1999-2000 may declare Honours and proceed and graduate in Honours programs according to the academic standards of the year in which they were admitted. Specialized Honours Program Health and Kinesiology Stream
Students in the Health and Kinesiology Stream can use the available non-science elective credits in that stream to take courses towards a Certificate in Sport Administration. More than 120 credits may be required to complete both the certificate and the degree requirements. Consult the kinesiology and health science mini-calendar for details. Applied Certificate Stream Note: Students may only be enrolled in one certificate stream at a time.
Honours Double Major and Honours Major/Minor Programs An Honours Major in kinesiology and health science may be combined with an Honours Major in another subject area in a BSc Honours Double Major degree program, or with an Honours Minor in another subject area in a BSc Honours Major/Minor degree program. Possible subject combinations are listed under Undergraduate Degree Programs in the Faculty of Pure and Applied Science Undergraduate Degree and Certificate Programs section of this Calendar.
* or at least 66 credits from science courses if the minor is in a fine arts subject area Honours Major
Note: SC/PSYC 1010 6.0 is required as a prerequisite for one core course. Honours Minor
Note: SC/PSYC 1010 6.0 is required as a prerequisite for one core course. |
