Minor in Kinesiology

Movement is a part of our everyday lives, and the central focus of Penn State’s Kinesiology minor is examining our physical activity — ranging from the basic mechanisms of human movement to the complex dynamics of physical activity in the context of human health and well-being.

Even if you aren’t a Kinesiology major, you can still experience what the program has to offer through this minor. Study everything from the basic mechanisms of human movement to the complex dynamics of physical activity in the context of human health and wellness, and incorporate the study of physical movement into your major while expanding your career opportunities at the same time.
