ADVISING HOLD There is an enrollment advising hold on all students accounts that must be pulled by an advisor before the student can enroll on iSIS. This can be accomplished by - meeting with an advisor - completing an advising waiver at and turning it in to an advisor or the main office (Natatorium 1A)

Meeting with an advisor The easiest way to schedule an advising meeting is to an advisor with the days and times you can meet. We will then check our schedules to set up a meeting that is convenient for you. A typical meeting can last from 10 to 30 minutes during which your flag will be pulled and a tentative schedule will be developed for the next semester.

The Kinesiology curriculum Students entering the program in Fall, 2008 or later will follow the new Kinesiology curriculum. The new curriculum has a 17 hour lower level core and 18 hours of upper level classes with at least 4 courses in either the exercise physiology emphasis or the public health/physical activity emphasis. Kinesiology majors must receive a “C” or better in the lower and upper level courses to count them towards their degree Lower level core Kin 2204 hours Kin 3103 hours Kin 335,3364,1 hours Kin 345,3464,1 hours In the HE major, HN 132 is a professional course that must be completed

Emphasis Areas in the curriculum Exercise Physiology : is the responses of the human body to physical activity. Emphasis is placed on understanding the structure-function relationships of the respiratory, cardiovascular, and muscular systems and how their function is integrated to support the dynamics of muscular contraction. Public Health Physical Activity : Public health physical activity is the social and behavioral epidemiology of physical activity in public health, social and psychological influences on physical activity, and promotion of physical activity in individuals, settings and communities

Pre-reqs for Lower level core Pre-reqs will be enforced by iSIS Kin 220 – none Kin 310 – Kin 220 Kin 335 – Biol 340, Kin 360 (Kin 398) or at least 8 hours of anatomy and physiology Kin 336 – Kin 335 or concurrent enrollment Kin 345/346 – Psych 110, Socio 211, and Kin 220 all with a C or better (must be enrolled in 345/346 concurrently)

Pre-requisites for Upper level courses in Spring 2014 Pre-requisites can be found in the Undergraduate catalogue on the Kansas State home page Contact an advisor or course instructor with questions

5 Year BS/MS Degree The combined BS/MS program provides exceptional undergraduates with the opportunity to obtain both a bachelor of science and master of science degree in Kinesiology in five years, a shorter time than typically required to earn a BS and MS if both degrees are earned separately. The program has two options : thesis and course work. In turn, the course work option has two tracks that permit the completion of the requirements for certification by the American College of Sports Medicine as an exercise specialist or public health physical activity specialist.

5 year BS/MS Degree The goal of the program is to produce graduates with an in- depth understanding of the fundamentals of Kinesiology and a broad set of professional skills. The curriculum will include both coursework and laboratory research experience. Graduates will be well equipped either to seek applied professional positions or pursue advanced degrees. The advantages of the combined degree to students seeking private sector employment will be entry level positions with higher-level responsibilities, higher pay, and opportunities for more rapid advancement. The rigorous training and combined BS/MS will offer a competitive advantage in the admissions process to students interested in pursuing a PhD or professional degree

BS/MPH The concurrent BS/MPH program provides exceptional undergraduate students with the opportunity to obtain both a Bachelor of Science degree and a Master of Public Health degree in a shorter time period than typically required if both degrees are pursued separately. It was approved by the university in the Spring of 2010.

BS/MPH This option allows for up to 9 credit hours to be applied to both the BS and the MPH degree. In order to apply credits from the undergraduate major to the MPH degree requirements, the student must: Apply and meet the normal admission requirements listed on the MPH website ( and required for application to the Graduate School, including a 3.0 GPA in last 60 hours of course work. Meet the requirements required for the desired MPH emphasis area, i.e., have the prerequisites completed. If accepted, the student is provisionally admitted into the MPH Program and allowed to take graduate courses. The agreed upon courses (9 hours) must be taken for graduate credit in courses numbered in the 600 and 700 sequences. Note that the student must be accepted before enrolling in any graduate courses. Application for the BS/MPH option is generally made at the end of the junior year or early in the senior year. Enroll and complete the appropriate courses agreed upon by the undergraduate department and the MPH emphasis area with a grade of B or better for graduate credit. Upon completion of the bachelor’s degree, the student is then fully admitted to the Graduate School and the MPH program.

ADMISSION REQUIREMENTS - Students may apply for the concurrent BS/MS program from the second semester of the sophomore year through the second semester of the junior year (when they have accumulated hours toward the BS degree. Students may apply during the senior year with special permission from the chair of the Kinesiology department and/or the coordinator of the Graduate Program in Kinesiology - Students must have completed the Kinesiology core courses (Kin 220, 335, 336, 345, and 346) - Minimum standards for regular admission and for retention in the program require a cumulative GPA of 3.0 and a GPA of 3.0 in required courses.

Spring graduates Students planning on graduating in Spring must complete an application for graduation in iSIS. This application is under the Student Center in the “other academic” box Deadlines for applications are set by the Dean’s office HE or A&S
