If you are currently in the Kinesiology Major and Major Co-op programs and wish to seek an honours degree, you would normally apply at the start of your third year in the program. Complete Section 1 of the Honours Application Form and submit it to the EPHE academic adviser. If you meet the honours eligibility requirements, you will need to find a supervisor for your honours thesis before being accepted into the program. Review the research profiles of faculty to determine who to approach. Instructions for finding a supervisor are available on the application form.
