General Information
The Master of Kinesiology (MK) and the Master of Science in Kinesiology (MSK) are designed to accommodate students with diverse academic backgrounds. The MK program is practitioner oriented, concluding with a capstone course. The MSK is research oriented and suited for those students particularly interested in pursuing a doctoral or professional degree. This degree requires the completion of a thesis, which must be successfully defended at a final oral examination. Both programs offer three areas of emphasis: behavioral, biophysical, and socio-historical studies. When applying for admission to either the MK or MSK program, applicants will select one area of emphasis.
Application and Admission Requirements
An applicant must satisfy the minimum admission requirements of the Graduate College (see Graduate Admission Regulations). Application materials must be received by May 1. (Students are admitted in fall semester only.) Students will be admitted when the following criteria are met; however, meeting these minimum requirements does not guarantee admission to a program:
1. An appropriate pattern of classes providing a foundation for the graduate area of study as determined by Kinesiology Department Graduate Faculty has been completed, including exercise physiology.
2. Official scores from the verbal, quantitative, and analytical reports of the Graduate Record Examination have been received. The GRE must have been taken within five years of application. Applicants posting verbal and quantitative scores of 33% and above will receive favorable attention.
3. Letter of application describing the applicant’s background, academic interests, career goals and potential faculty mentor. 4. A current resume.
5. Three letters of reference.
