The Master of Science in Kinesiology program mandates at least 30 credit hours for thesis-track students and 36 hours for those choosing the non-thesis coursework path. Each candidate collaborates with their advisory committee to create a personalized study plan that aligns with their academic goals and professional aspirations. Up to 12 credits from related disciplines may count toward degree requirements. Every graduate must showcase comprehensive knowledge of kinesiology through either written assessments or oral examinations.
Thesis candidates conclude their program by publicly defending their research and submitting their thesis to the Graduate School. Non-thesis students complete their studies with a comprehensive written exam covering research methodologies and four key areas drawn from their completed coursework within the MS program.
