It is a privilege to serve as the Acting Associate Dean, Research and Graduate Studies in the Faculty of Human Kinetics, and an honour to collaborate with such exceptional faculty, staff, and students.
Our research mission is to advance knowledge that will enhance health, well-being and overall quality of life. Successful mobilization of this knowledge will promote meaningful change, and provide value in the following areas: community, health, industry, policy, society/culture, and sport/recreation.
Over the next few years, our research culture will be enhanced by leveraging individual and shared strengths within the Faculty of Human Kinetics, and focusing on the following four strategic priorities:
- Celebrate and promote research success
- Enhance supportive research environment and increase internal communication
- Increase research impact mobilizations
- Create a sustainable faculty-level research program.

Our vision is to be a recognized leader in exercise and physical activity, motor behaviour, injury prevention, sport and exercise psychology and physiology, health and wellness, and sport management, leadership, recreation, and sociocultural research, while successfully translating findings into real-world settings and providing our student scholars with the best training and exposure possible.
