In an effort to promote the value of hands-on and co-curricular learning, all undergraduate Kinesiology and Physical Education (KPE) students complete a minimum of 96 hours of community leadership activity experiences as a graduation requirement.
These experiences will engage you in a leadership, administrative, instructional or service capacity related to the wide scope of kinesiology, physical activity, recreation, or applied health.
Our department regularly posts leadership opportunities, including coaching, athletic therapy and physiotherapy to both MyLearningSpace (MyLS) and the bulletin board in the main KPE office area (BA501).
