UofC " This Is Now

Honours programs are offered in all majors.

Applicants to an Honours program must have completed at least 10 and no more than 15 full-course equivalents, and have achieved a cumulative GPA of at least 3.30 over these courses (with a minimum GPA of 3.30 in all Kinesiology courses). These grade point averages must be maintained in order to retain Honours standing.

Students are strongly encouraged to consult with the Faculty's Student Programs Office prior to application.

Enrolment in Kinesiology 490 (Interpretation of Research and Research Project) is added to the course requirements for each Major in an Honours program. Enrolment in Kinesiology 490 is limited to 20 students. Registration in Kinesiology 490 is contingent on the student having made suitable arrangements with an eligible thesis supervisor, as well as the availability of the resources (laboratory space, equipment, etc.) needed to complete the thesis.

To graduate, a student will be required to present a minimum GPA of 3.30 over the entire program and an average of at least 3.30 in all courses offered by the Faculty of Kinesiology.
