Program Description

The M.S. degree in kinesiology requires a minimum of 30 hours for students completing a master's thesis option and 36 hours for students completing a course work option. The specific program of study, designed by the student and supervisory committee, is tailored to meet the individual needs and interests of the student. A maximum of 12 hours of supporting work in other departments may be applied toward the degree. All students are expected to demonstrate a depth and breadth of understanding of kinesiology in a written and/or oral final evaluation.

The final evaluation for the thesis option is a public defense of the thesis project and submission of the thesis to the Graduate School. For the coursework option, the final evaluation is a multiple topic essay examination based on research methods and four general topics derived from the coursework the student has completed as part of their MS curriculum.
