Biomechanics of Musculoskeletal Injury

Catalog description

This course examines the biomechanics of skeletal and collagenous tissues, focusing on current research approaches and mechanical factors contributing to injury. Students will apply principles of mechanics to analyze tissue responses across diverse populations, including individuals with disabilities and age-specific groups. Through critical literature review and presentations, students will explore contemporary issues in injury biomechanics and develop skills in scientific communication and analysis.
