ADVANCED BIOMECHANICS.

Catalog description

Notes: a foundational understanding of exercise science (kinesiology), anatomy, and physics is assumed, along with proficiency in basic algebra and trigonometry for interpreting and solving problems using words, graphs, equations, and formulas. Pre-requisites: accepted into the MS in Exercise Science program. Explores advanced biomechanics, focusing on the analysis of internal and external forces acting on the human body and their effects on movement. Emphasis is placed on developing practical skills to analyze movement both qualitatively and quantitatively, with applications relevant to professional practice. Learning is supported by current evidence-based practices and peer-reviewed literature to solve real-world movement situations.
