Sport and Exercise Psychology

This concentration is co-delivered by the Department of Psychology and the School of Kinesiology & Health Science. It is open to Kinesiology and Health Science students (excluding those in the Movement and Health stream) and Psychology students, and includes course requirements from both disciplines.

The Sport and Exercise Psychology Concentration provides students with a multidisciplinary understanding of human performance, development, well-being and participation in sport and exercise. Students also examine systemic issues in sport and exercise settings and organizations, to understand the implications of decolonization, equity, diversity and inclusion in the fields of sport and exercise psychology.

Drawing on perspectives from both disciplines, students explore how psychological principles and behaviour change theories influence performance, motivation, participation and overall well-being across a range of sport and exercise settings.
