Student Testimonials

"Being in the first graduating class of Kinesiology at Trent is amazing as I have been able to see how the program grew to become its own niche! The classes are great and packed full with information, as well as some really interesting labs! Not to mention the professors are very approachable and always willing to help you out when you need it! Overall this program has such a holistic view into the world of Kinesiology, and students coming to Trent for this program can expect to have a great time! "
