Leisure Studies

Although there is no full undergraduate degree program specializing in Leisure Studies, the School of Human Kinetics offers a minor in Leisure Studies. The minor focuses on individual, community, societal and environmental well-being. You examine leisure as a social and cultural phenomenon, investigate leisure behaviour, study the delivery and management of leisure services, consider the health benefits of leisure, and learn about the environmental impacts of leisure. In the process, you become prepared for a variety of management, programming, planning and leadership positions in the recreation and leisure services field.
