Welcome to Kinesiology
Kinesiology is an applied science and is one of many academic disciplines found on most university campuses.
Kinesiology is formally defined as, "the study of human movement, especially physical activity, in all forms and all contexts." (Martens, 1988)
What was once a narrow field of study with one major career path, teaching and coaching; kinesiology has become a broadly allied health discipline with many career options. See the Career Opportunities tab for more information.
