Programinligting

Hierdie voltydse driejaarprogram behels twee spesialiseringsopsies, naamlik Biokinetika en Sportwetenskap. Die eerste twee studiejare van die program bestaan uit ’n generiese kurrikulum wat deur al die BSportSci-studente gevolg word en sluit in basiese en toegepaste wetenskap van die menslike liggaam. Aan die einde van die tweede jaar vind keuring plaas op grond van akademiese meriete en studente sal verdeel in ’n spesifieke Sportwetenskap-kurrikulum of Biokinetika-kurrikulum tot en met die einde van hul derde jaar. Die eerste jaar van internskap van die Biokinetika-studente vind plaas gedurende die derde studiejaar. Daarna gaan Biokinetika-studente voort met die BScHons in Biokinetika asook hulle tweede jaar van internskap. Die vierjaar-Biokinetika-programstruktuur (3+1) is in ooreenstemming met die nuwe regulasies van die GBRSA wat betref biokinetikaopleiding wat al die universiteite wat hierdie program aanbied sal volg. Die Sportwetenskap-studente het die opsie om voort te gaan met die BScHons in Sportwetenskap, die NGSO of om te begin werk in die sportindustrie.

 

Toelatingsvereistes

  •  Die volgende persone sal vir toelating oorweeg word: n kandidaat wat in besit is vann sertifikaat wat deur die Universiteit beskou word as ekwivalent aan die vereiste Graad 12-sertifikaat met universiteitsvrystelling, n kandidaat wat aann ander tersiêre instelling gegradueer het of aan wie die status vann gegradueerde van sodanige instelling toegeken is, en n kandidaat wat aan n ander fakulteit aan die Universiteit van Pretoria gegradueer het.

  • Lewensoriëntering word van die TPT-berekening uitgesluit.

  • Graad 11 se finale-eksamenuitslae, die Nasionale Normtoets (National Benchmark Test – NBT) se uitslae en n Toegevoegdewaarde-vraelys sal vir die voorlopige toelating van voornemende studente gebruik word.

  • Toelating tot Gesondheidswetenskappeprogramme is onderhewig aann keuringsproses.

  • Die som van die uitslae van ses vakke, waaronder Engels, Wiskunde en Fisiese Wetenskap of Lewenswetenskappe, word vir keuringsdoeleindes bereken.

  • Kandidate, neem asseblief kennis dat jou TPT nie met meer as twee punte mag daal in die uitslae van jou finale skool-eksamen nie ten einde jou voorlopige toelating te behou.

Let daarop dat voldoening aan die minimum toelatingsvereistes nie noodwendig toelating tot enige program in hierdie Fakulteit waarborg nie.
