The field placement experience is designed to provide students with hands-on, practical experience in a professional setting related to their field of study, and to enhance their skills and develop a deeper understanding of their chosen field of work. Students will be placed in organizations where they are expected to complete 300 placement hours under the supervision of experienced professionals, gaining valuable insights into the day-to-day operations of the industry.

Students are expected to actively engage in the placement experience, seek guidance from mentors, and reflect on their personal and professional development throughout the course, culminating in the completion of a final reflection report on the placement and integrating their practical experience with previous theoretical learning in the graduate program. Possible settings include hospitals, clinics, sport and exercise organizations, and community centres. This is a credit/no-credit course.
