honours course comprises 3 designated blocks per week during which students are given the

opportunitytogainhandsonexperiencewhilebeingsupervisedbyregisteredBiokineticistsinreal

world clinical settings. Here, Biokinetic students are expected to apply the theoretical

underpinningsof the controlleduseof physical activity in thepreventionof disease and as the

primary therapeuticmodality during final phase rehabilitation (provided during in the form of

lecturesandworkshops).

Importantly,studentswillberequiredtokeepadetailedrecordof thesessionstheyattendina
