Kinesiology

Overview

This Kinesiology program from Kansas State University had theses and coursework formats.

The application process is the same as for the traditional M.S. degree except that completion if the B.S. degree is not required. The following requirements must be met before an individual can be admitted into this program:

• The student must be seeking a B.S. degree from the Department of Kinesiology.

• The student must have completed 45-90 credit hours toward the B.S. degree.

• The student’s cumulative undergraduate GPA must be at least 3.0.

Since there is some overlap between undergraduate and graduate study, some graduate courses will satisfy the degree requirements of the undergraduate degree. A maximum of 9 graduate credit hours from the M.S. KIN degree can be counted toward the B.S. KIN degree. 

Some additional conditions are:

• The student must complete 30 (thesis) or 36 (coursework) graduate credit hours with a graduate GPA of at least 3.0.

• The student must complete all B.S. KIN undergraduate requirements with the exception that up to 9 credit hours taken for graduate credit can also count toward his/her undergraduate degree requirements.

• At least 18 of the graduate credit hours on the Graduate Program of Study must be in classes at the 700 level or above.

• A student pursuing a thesis format must complete at least 6 credit hours of Masters Thesis (KIN 899).
