MEd Coaching Studies

The Master of Education in Coaching Studies (MEd CS) program provides students with a background in the art and science involved in coaching sport.

The program is designed for experienced sport coaches and leaders who are looking to engage in professional development and advance their careers. It is a course-based program, which requires completion of a project and 2 co-operative education (reflective practice) work terms.

Required courses are taken as part of a cohort group on campus for 2 consecutive summers, followed by two 4-month work terms (Sept-Dec, Jan-Feb) in the first year (alternative arrangements are also possible). 

Two electives are taken outside of the summer term and may be chosen from courses in the School of Exercise Science, Physical and Health Education, other departments at the University of Victoria, or from other universities to complement your interests in coaching studies.
