You explore a variety of fields that may be of interest before choosing to specialize in exercise science, pedagogy, or active health.</p> <p>In your third and fourth year, you develop skills for teaching and counselling athletes, and learn about athletic injuries, research methods, applied ethics, physiology, exercise testing, and exercise prescription. You also select a specialty out of the following specializations:</p> <ul> <li>The <strong>Exercise Science</strong> specialization prepares you for a career as a kinesiologist or exercise physiologist, graduate school, and/or professional school (such as physiotherapy, medicine or chiropractic).</li> <li>The <strong>Pedagogy</strong> specialization prepares you for continued certification in teacher education, coaching, sport performance advising, and/or graduate school.</li> <li>The <strong>Active Health</strong> specialization prepares you for a career in health and wellness, specifically community health and fitness, athletic therapy, sports psychology, and fitness management and recreation, and those planning to continue onto graduate school.</li> </ul> <p>To compare the three specializations and view the course requirements, please see the <a href="https://www.ufv.ca/calendar/current/ProgramsF-L/KPE_DEG.htm#program-outline" target="_blank" rel="noopener">kinesiology program outline</a> in the Academic Calendar.</p> <h2>Kinesiology Minor</h2> <p>If you are pursuing a Bachelor of Science, Bachelor of Arts, or Bachelor of General Studies, you can opt to complete a minor in Kinesiology to learn about human anatomy and movement.</p> <p>Learn the various influences that affect human physical performance whether that be emotional, behavioural, cognitive or the physiological systems within our bodies. Acquire counselling skills used by instructors and consultants in the fitness industry, and find out how and when to apply them.</p> <p>Please note that the program outline for the <a href="https://www.ufv.ca/calendar/current/ProgramsF-L/KPE_MINORS.htm" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kinesiology minor for Bachelor of Arts and Bachelor of General Studies</a> students is slightly different than the <a href="https://www.ufv.ca/calendar/current/ProgramsF-L/KPE_MINORS.htm#Minor_Kin_BSc" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kinesiology minor for Bachelor of Science</a> students.</p> <h3>Additional features</h3> <h4>Minors and extended minors</h4> <p>Pair your Bachelor of Kinesiology with any of the existing minors (including Arts, Science and Business) or extended minors offered at UFV (with the exception of the Biology extended minor).</p> <p>Learn more about <a href="https://www.ufv.ca/calendar/current/ProgramsF-L/KPE_DEG.htm#BKPE%20combo%20minor/ext%20minor" target="_blank" rel="noopener">pairing your Bachelor of Kinesiology with a minor or extended minor</a> in the UFV Academic Calendar.</p> <h4>Biology minor</h4> <p>Combine your Bachelor of Kinesiology degree with a minor in Biology especially tailored for Kinesiology students.

Some find employment as recreation consultants, sport and fitness analysts, fitness consultants, teachers, and athletic training and therapy practitioners.</p> <p>Many grads pursue advanced degrees to become occupational therapists, physiotherapists, massage therapists, or doctors in hospitals, clinics, long-term care facilities, and private settings.</p> <p>Below is a sample of careers currently held by graduates of the Kinesiology program at UFV:</p> <ul> <li>Kinesiologist</li> <li>Recreation Consultants</li> <li>Sport and Fitness analysts</li> <li>Fitness Consultants</li> <li>Teaching</li> <li>Athletic Training & Therapy</li> <li>Physical and occupational therapy</li> <li>Medicine</li> <li>Chiropractic</li> </ul> <p>The First Nations Health Authority promote opportunities for young, passionate, and educated B.C.
