We serve approximately 370 undergraduate and 80 graduate students which allows us to get to know students on a first name basis. We are also the proud home to the Sea-Hawks! We have varsity athletes competing in basketball (men, women), volleyball (women), soccer (men, women), swimming (men, women) and cross-country (men, women). Many of our student athletes are Academic All-Canadians with USPORTS! Our programs prepare students to meet societal needs for professionals who are able to initiate and manage health and lifestyle-enhancing programs. The School encourages a close working relationship among students, faculty, and staff, and with local and national sport, health, and professional organizations. Co-operative education programs provide for the integration of academic and professional knowledge. A full-time academic program officer within the School assists students with decisions related to their academic program. The School prides itself on the extent to which senior undergraduate and graduate students are engaged in teaching, research, and scholarly activity. Many graduates of the School are leaders in the fields of physical education, sport, kinesiology, health, and recreation.

Background

What is the Active Living Leadership Network?
As outlined in the Let’s Get Moving: A Common Vision for Increasing Physical Activity and Reducing Sedentary Living in Canada, it is only through coordination and collaboration across sectors and orders of government that physical activity can be increased and sedentary living reduced at the population level. The Network facilitates the opportunity for us all to work together on this common goal.
