Program overview Program structure Admission requirements Application process Tuition & funding
The MSc in Health and Exercise Science builds on the strengths of our undergraduate programs, looking at the mechanistic sciences and how the body works. Areas of specialization include the clinical areas of injury prevention, and the chronic care of certain diseases through exercise. Researchers in the department are asking important questions, from how the body produces new muscle proteins to how stress can influence the cardiovascular system. All of the program's courses are research-based in one way or another. Join a passionate student cohort in the booming field of Exercise Science.
Fully-qualified candidates are required to complete a minimum of 45 credits.

Tuition and fees of the program may depend on your student status, among other key factors. Estimate these costs based on the most common situations.
Funding packages are generally available for students in thesis-based programs. They come in the form of awards, teaching and research assistantships are offered at the time of admission to most students to allow them to focus on their research and studies. Research and thesis-based students are automatically considered for all entrance graduate awards when they apply to Concordia, provided they meet eligibility criteria. No separate application is required.
The Quebec and Canadian governments offer a number of competitive graduate scholarships. We encourage you to apply for these awards at the same time you are preparing your application.
