Research Areas
The School of Human Kinetics comprises many research-and/or teaching-based laboratories. Students within all of our graduate programs are given the opportunity to work with various groups of students and professors within state-of-the-art laboratories/research programs. For example, students may take advantage of the Research Centre for Sport in Canadian Society, the Training Centre for Intervention and Consultation in Sport, Physical Activity, and Health, the Biomechanics Laboratory, and the Motor Learning Laboratory, all of which are housed within the SHK. The Behavioural and Metabolic Research Centre for Obesity Prevention and Treatment at the Montfort Hospital is home to several graduate students specializing in exercise physiology, psychology, and nutrition. So are the Biomechanics, Motor Learning and Exercise Physiology, Research Laboratories.
