BPK leads to an advanced understanding of physiology, anatomy, neuroscience, movement and human health through fundamental and applied research, education and service.

SFU offers MSC and PhD degrees centred around five research pillars: cardiovascular physiology, chronic diseases, neuromechanics, environmental physiology and neuroscience. 

The MSc program in the Department of Biomedical Physiology and Kinesiology involves multidisciplinary approaches to investigate fundamental properties of human structure and function that relate to health, movement, and physiology. 

The master's program provides research training through a series of graduate-level courses combined with a research thesis presenting novel lines of enquiry related to the fields of biomedical physiology and kinesiology.
