Kinesiology is the scientific study of human movement, encompassing biomechanics, anatomy, and physiology to understand how the body moves and performs physical activity. It underlies careers in physical therapy, athletic training, exercise physiology, and sports coaching, helping practitioners assess movement patterns, prevent injury, and design rehabilitation or fitness programs. Many universities offer kinesiology degrees as a pathway into health and sports science professions.
