Kinesiology and exercise science are fields that are constantly on the cutting edge of medical advancement. Due to the overarching need for communication between researchers in the field in order to maintain consistent and effective methods and practices, students looking to complete their kinesiology degree abroad would be well suited to search for a location in a more developed country, which has an established system of higher education.

Spain. Dozens of universities around the country offer degree programs in kinesiology and exercise science. The Spanish culture and lifestyle is a major draw for international students, not to mention there is beautiful scenery worth seeing throughout the entire country. Kinesiology degree programs are taught almost exclusively in Spanish in Spain, however, so some Spanish language skills will be needed.

Australia. Understanding human motion is critical in the world of sports, and Australia is easily one of the most sports-crazed nations on Earth. Improving the performance of athletes in top sports, such as cricket, rugby, basketball, track and field, and swimming, is a major goal of many exercise science degree programs in Australia. Outside of sports, physiotherapy is an increasingly popular concentration within the field.
