Physical and Health Education

Jenni Sundin has taken the gold medal in the 63kg category at the Ontario Weightlifting Association’s Scholastic Challenge. Sundin, an international student in Nipissing’s Bachelor of Physical Health and Education, also managed to qualify for the Swedish Nationals in May, based on her performance.

With a symbolic ribbon cutting last Friday, Nipissing’s Centre for Physical and Health Education officially opened, illuminating the many ways students and faculty are working to improve the health of our communities through the study of physical activity.

Researchers at Nipissing University have earned $429,789 in federal funding from the Canada Foundation for Innovation (CFI). The investment supports cutting-edge research equipment, laboratories and tools the researchers will employ to improve the lives of Canadians.
