Certificate Changes

Certificate in Applied

Human Nutrition

This certificate is intended for professionals who are

not dietitians nor nutritionists, but are concerned with

health and wellness promotion such as nurses,

kinesiologists, professional coaches and personal

trainers, teachers, trained food service supervisors,

dietary technicians, pharmacists and clinical

psychologists. The purpose is to provide these

professionals with an enhanced understanding of the

relationships among food, body composition, health,

and human performance.

Please note that this certificate does not qualify the

individual as a registered dietitian.

Admission is governed by the University’s admissions

regulations. See “British Columbia and Yukon

Applicants” on page 20. After being admitted to the

University, submission of a completed program

approval form to the kinesiology undergraduate

advisor is required for formal acceptance in the

program.

Requirements

There is an allowable transferable credit maximum

that counts toward the certificate program from any

other institution, including the Open Learning Agency.

See “Residency Requirements” on page 107.

Students must complete one of

KIN 105-3 Fundamentals of Human Structure and

Function*

KIN 205-3 Introduction to Human Physiology

KIN 208-3 Introduction to Physiological Systems

and all of

KIN 110-3 Human Nutrition: Current Issues*

KIN 111-3 Food and Food Safety*

KIN 212-3 Food and Society*

KIN 311-3 Applied Human Nutrition

Students must also complete nine credit hours (three

courses) of electives chosen from the following.

GERO 302-3 Health Promotion and Aging†

GERO 407-3 Nutrition and Aging†

KIN 143-3 Exercise Management*

KIN 303-3 Kinanthropometry†

KIN 312-3 Nutrition in Fitness and Sport*

KIN 340-3 Active Health: Behavior and Promotion†

KIN 375-3 Human Growth and Development*†

on all required courses. The certificate is normally

completed within five years of admission to the

certificate program. Credit hours applied to one

certificate may not be applied to another certificate or

diploma.

Certificate in Health and

Fitness Studies

This program provides adults with a co-ordinated

program of university study on a full or part time basis

in the areas of health, fitness and nutrition, and

provides basic knowledge in the functions of the

healthy human body at rest and during physical

exertion. The program is useful to those supervising

training and/or fitness programs, to sport coaches,

and to the general public.

Admission is governed by the University admissions

regulations. See “British Columbia and Yukon

Applicants” on page 20.

After being admitted to Simon Fraser University,

submission of a completed program approval form to

the kinesiology undergraduate advisor is required for

formal acceptance in the program.

Requirements

There is a maximum number of allowable transferable

credit hours that count towards the certificate from

any other institution, including the Open learning

Agency. See “Residency Requirements” on page 107.
