2.1   General Degrees

The School of Human Kinetics and Recreation offers six general degrees in three program areas. For specific details on each degree refer to the appropriate Program Regulations - General and Honours Degrees. Courses of the School are designated by the abbreviation HKR.

2.1.1   Kinesiology Degrees
Kinesiology degrees are designed to prepare graduates for careers in ergonomics, fitness, health and wellness, and lifestyle professions. The kinesiology degree programs consist of School courses in addition to a flexible choice of electives. The two kinesiology degrees are:
•   Bachelor of Kinesiology (Co-operative): is comprised of 120 credit hours and three work terms and is taken on a full-time basis.
•   Bachelor of Kinesiology: is comprised of 120 credit hours and can be taken on a full-time or part-time basis.

2.1.2   Physical Education Degrees
Physical Education degrees are designed to prepare graduates for careers in teaching and related areas. There are two physical education degrees with teaching and general options available within each degree.

The teaching option contains courses in the fundamentals of physical education as well as courses in curriculum planning, teaching methods, and pedagogy relevant to physical education curricula for various grade levels. Within the teaching option students will be placed in an educational setting for some of the course work. Following completion of a physical education degree - teaching option, a student wishing to teach in a school setting normally completes an intermediate/secondary degree program offered by the Faculty of Education. For information regarding admission requirements to the intermediate/secondary programs refer to the FACULTY OF EDUCATION section of this Calendar.

The general option is designed to provide basic professional preparation. The general option of the program consists of courses common to the teaching option plus a flexible choice of electives, without the requirement for curriculum and methods courses.

The two physical education degrees are:
•   Bachelor of Physical Education (Co-operative): is comprised of 120 credit hours and three work terms and is taken on a full-time basis. This program is offered in the teaching and general options.
•   Bachelor of Physical Education: is comprised of 120 credit hours and can be taken on a full-time or part-time basis. This program is offered in the teaching and general options.

2.1.3   Recreation Degrees
Recreation degrees are designed to provide students with the opportunity to develop professional competencies in recreation and leisure service management. The students will also gain an understanding of the social, physical, psychological, cultural, economic, and political issues that influence recreation and leisure participation, delivery, and management. The two recreation degrees are:
•   Bachelor of Recreation (Co-operative): is comprised of 120 credit hours and three work terms and is taken on a full-time basis.
•   Bachelor of Recreation: is comprised of 120 credit hours and can be taken on a full-time or part-time basis.

2.2 Honours Degrees

Honours degrees signify superior academic achievement in kinesiology and physical education programs and superior academic achievement with specific course work in recreation programs. To graduate with honours, application must be made on the prescribed form which is available from the School or the Office of the Registrar. For further information on honours degrees see Program Regulations - General and Honours Degrees.

2.3   Work Terms in Co-operative Programs

Students registered for work terms are also governed by the Co-operative Student Handbook. Prior to registering for the first work term, students must successfully complete the course Professional Development Seminars.

2.3.1   General Information
•   During work terms students are brought into direct contact with the kinesiology, physical education, and recreation professions, exposed to the work place setting, expected to assume ever-increasing responsibility in employment situations as their education advances, and introduced to experiences beyond the scope of those which could be provided in the classroom.
•   Students are responsible for finding suitable work placements. The Co-operative Education Office of the School provides resources to assist in this process.
•   In addition to a work term, students may register for up to 6 credit hours, although they are advised to consult the School’s Academic Student Advisor.
•   Students are not permitted to drop work terms without prior approval of the Committee on Undergraduate Studies and with the recommendation of the Co-operative Education Office of the School. Students who drop a work term without permission, or who fail to honour an agreement to work with an employer, will be assigned a grade of FAL (fail) for that work term.
•   Students who conduct themselves in such a manner as to cause their termination from the job, will be assigned a grade of FAL (fail) for that work term.
•   Students are expected to maintain professional ethics, including confidentiality.

2.3.2   Work Term Reports
•   A work term report, on a topic approved by the Co-operative Education Office of the School, must be submitted for each work term. The report must be approved by the employer and submitted by the student to the Co-operative Education Office of the School on or before the appropriate deadline specified in the University Diary.
•   Late work term reports will not be evaluated unless prior permission for a late work term report has been granted by the Co-operative Education Office of the School.

2.3.3   Evaluation of Work Terms
•   Two components are considered in work term evaluation: on-the-job performance and the work term report. Each component is evaluated separately and equally. The overall evaluation of work terms will result in the assignment of one of the following letter grades: PWD (pass with distinction), PAS (pass) or FAL (fail).

5 PROMOTION REGULATIONS

5.1 General Information
5.2 Promotion Status
5.3 Other Information

5.1 General Information

• In addition to meeting the promotion regulations for the School of Human Kinetics and Recreation all students must meet the general academic regulations (undergraduate). For further information refer to UNIVERSITY REGULATIONS - GENERAL ACADEMIC REGULATIONS (UNDERGRADUATE).

• Success in the programs depends on meeting the requirements of both academic terms and work terms.

• To be promoted a student must, in addition to obtaining the requisite grades and average, complete and deliver all work term reports as required.

5.2 Promotion Status

• A student's promotion status at the end of each term will be in one of the following four categories:

5.2.1 Clear Promotion: Clear Promotion means a student can proceed to the next term without restrictions.

• Students completing an academic term will receive a Clear Promotion by obtaining an overall average of at least 60%, with a numeric grade of at least 60% in each HKR course, and a numeric grade of at least 50% in each non-HKR course.

• Students completing a work term will receive a Clear Promotion by obtaining a PAS (pass) or a PWD (pass with distinction) in the work term.

• Students completing courses in addition to a work term must obtain a PAS (pass) or a PWD (pass with distinction) in the work term and an overall average of at least 60%, with a grade of at least 60% in each HKR course, and at least 50% in each non-HKR course.

5.2.2 Probationary Promotion: Probationary Promotion designates less than a Clear Promotion but requires an overall average of at least 60%, with a numeric grade of at least 50% in each course, and not more than one HKR grade with a numeric grade below 60%.

• A student with Probationary Promotion at the end of Academic Term 1 may be permitted to enter Academic Term 2 but must have Clear Promotion by the end of Academic Term 2.

• A student with Probationary Promotion from any academic term may continue to the subsequent work term under the condition that entry into the next academic term is not allowed until the student's status is changed to Clear Promotion.

• A student with Probationary Promotion at the end of the final academic term will not be recommended for graduation until the student's status is changed to Clear Promotion.

• To change Probationary Promotion to Clear Promotion the student must satisfy the School that he or she is competent in the subject of the HKR course in which the student has failed to achieve 60%. This will normally entail re-examination, after which the student will be declared to have passed or failed a test of competency in the subject concerned. No numerical grade will be assigned in the re-examination, and the original grade submitted for the course will not be changed.

• Re-examination may be written, oral, practical or a combination of formats and will be at a time determined by the School. Failure to submit to the re-examination or failure in the re-examination will result in denial of promotion.

• The School may recommend that the student complete remedial studies before re-examination.

5.2.3 Probationary (A) Promotion: Probationary (A) Promotion designates failure to successfully complete the required components of HKR 2210, 2220, 3210, 3220, 4210 and 4220 in a given term.

• Probationary (A) Promotion will be given upon the recommendation of the course instructor/coordinator and/or the Committee on Undergraduate Studies and only for extreme circumstances, duly authenticated.

• A student with Probationary (A) Promotion in any term will be permitted to enter subsequent terms and will receive a letter grade of INC (incomplete) in the course. A final numeric grade will not be received until the required components of each course has been successfully completed. Academic Council will grant this status, taking into account the specific factors involved in each case. This status is not automatic, as failure to successfully complete all required components of each course would normally result in a failing grade.

• A student with Probationary (A) Promotion at the end of the final academic term will not be recommended for graduation until the student has successfully completed all required components of all courses, and the student’s status is changed to Clear Promotion.

5.2.4 Promotion Denied: If Clear Promotion is not achieved each term or following probation, promotion is denied.

• A student with Promotion Denied status will be required to withdraw from the School. Students with Promotion Denied status may apply for readmission to the program after two semesters. A student will normally be readmitted into the term from which promotion was denied.

• A student who is denied promotion for failing a work term may be considered for readmission after the lapse of two semesters, at which time the student will be required to complete a further work term with satisfactory performance before being admitted to any further academic term in the School. A work term may be repeated only once, and not more than two work terms may be repeated in the entire program.

• A student who has been denied promotion as a result of having failed a work term and who, in the opinion of the School, can benefit from a remedial program, may be permitted an extension of time not to exceed the end of the registration period of the subsequent semester to complete the requirements of the work term.

• A student who is denied promotion as a result of grades received in HKR and non-HKR courses will be required to repeat all HKR courses in which they obtained a numeric grade of less than 60% in that term. A non-HKR course may be replaced by a course acceptable in the student's program.

• A student with Promotion Denied status at the end of the final academic term will not be recommended for graduation until the student's status is changed to Clear Promotion.

5.3 Other Information

• The Committee on Undergraduate Studies will determine each student’s promotion status at the end of each term and will make its recommendations to Academic Council.

• Academic Council may promote a student notwithstanding the promotion regulations given above. A decision of this nature will be made only for reasons acceptable to Academic Council and in the case of a student thought likely to succeed in future terms.

• A student shall be permitted only one readmission to the School.

• Students may be required to withdraw from their program at any time, if, in the opinion of the School, they are unlikely to benefit from continued attendance.
