- Designed to help students develop an understanding of biomechanical concepts, as they apply to the analysis of human movement and function, through experiential learning.
- Introduces emerging methodologies and techniques in the field of biomechanics, particularly as they relate to human movement.
- Course activities require both computational analyses and conceptual understanding.
- Exposes students to types of data acquisition, reduction, analysis, and interpretations.
- Includes those factors that identify limitations to the action and measurement of human movement.
- Offers students an opportunity to integrate knowledge emerging from multiple disciplines, including biomechanics, movement sciences, biology, and physics, as those disciplines apply to functional human movement.
