MS in Kinesiology
Training master practitioners in human movement
UIC’s Master of Science in kinesiology focuses on the relationship between a fit, strong body and quality of life, in everyone from high-performance athletes to people living with disabilities or disease.
We produce experts that examine human movement through the lenses of biomechanics, physiology, and psychology. Our students learn from award-winning faculty that are leading the way in groundbreaking studies in exercise physiology, gait, biomechanics, and the psychology of exercise.
