In this course, students employ mechanical principles to describe and quantify human motion in static and dynamic situations. Students are introduced to the biomechanical and neural elements that dictate movement and develop skills to analyze functional human movement activities in exercise and daily-living contexts. This course is recommended to students with an interest in athletics, physical or occupational therapy, orthopedics and biomechanics. Enrollment limited to 20.
Permission is required for interchange registration during the add/drop period only.
