In the Bachelor of Kinesiology in Health Promotion program, you will gain a foundation in movement science and a background in the determinants of health, equity, diversity and inclusion, wellness, evaluation, and program delivery. You’ll learn how programs and policies, like housing, access to healthy food, and mental health supports, can affect health. In addition, you will learn how to assess, develop and implement programs that are designed to achieve specific health results.

Health promotion can be applied in all areas of society, including workplaces, schools, health care facilities, your personal life, and the community. This field is growing as workplaces and organizations recognize the importance of promoting health and wellbeing among their employees and members.

The health promotion bachelor’s degree program at the U of R will prepare you for a health career that has a positive impact on our world. Get career-ready with a 15-week, full-time fieldwork experience, applying what you learned from studying your major. This level of experience prior to degree completion is not common in other undergraduate kinesiology programs.

The therapeutic recreation bachelor’s degree program at the University of Regina will prepare you for a unique health career as a recreation therapist. Therapeutic Recreation uses leisure, play, recreation, and physical activity as treatment modalities to support purposeful and meaningful interventions that are based on individual strengths and values, and are guided by assessments. By studying therapeutic recreation, you will gain the knowledge, skills, and abilities to use recreational activities that focus on the person, to enhance their quality of life and well-being.

Make a sound investment in your future with a bachelor’s degree in economics from the University of Regina in Saskatchewan. Careers in economics consistently rank as one of the highest for lifetime earnings.

This economics bachelor’s degree program equips you with an understanding of how individuals, businesses, governments and nations make choices to advance their economic wellbeing.

As an economics major at U of R, you develop skills in analytical reasoning, problem solving, data analysis and financial literacy — real leadership thinking.

Our graduates say their economics degree helped them build solid foundations — thanks, in part, to close mentorship from U of R faculty members. They leave with the ability to think through economic concepts and measure economic outcomes in the real world. "I felt the professors were knowledgeable, friendly and always accessible for extra support," says Tanner Forster ’14.

The Master of Education degree in Educational Leadership (EDL) is designed to serve the needs of practicing school administrators, and for those who wish to prepare for a career in educational administration.

The MEd in Curriculum and Instruction degree is designed for licensed teachers seeking to become learning specialists in a selected area of the field of education, to advance within their career and to meet professional development renewal requirements. This option is made available to those students who, as teacher-librarians, have a specific interest in this area of education. Our growing capacity to network with other institutions via technology makes it possible to include graduate level courses for teacher-librarians.

The purpose of this MA program is to give graduate students in English the opportunity to complete an MA that has a creative writing emphasis and requires the submission of an extended creative work. At the same time, it will be a degree that requires a substantial amount of work within the field of English, which we also see a valuable part of the education of creative writers. It is hoped that the degree will be the foundation for careers in creative writing and editing. It is aimed at students who have aspirations in this field but have not had the rather more extensive professional experience involved with gaining admission to an M.F.A. degree.
