University of Alberta

A world of discovery awaits you

Explore a wealth of extraordinary, stimulating learning opportunities, focused on a very broad spectrum of human movement studies that include physical activity and health, kinesiology, physical education, recreation and leisure studies, socio-cultural studies of sport and leisure, and sport science.

Our research interests traverse the realm of the art and science of human movement from the cell to society, across the life and abilities spectra.

In many ways our faculty is like a "mini" university with its diverse interests and breadth of study in both the arts and science. This is truly "Where the Art and Science of Human Movement come Alive!"
