Recent topics have included reproductive health issues, eating disorders, heart disease, depression, autoimmune disorders and breast cancer. Cannot be taken S/U. Prerequisites: ESS 140 or a strong biological sciences background. Restrictions: Juniors and seniors only. Enrollment limited to 12. Instructor permission required.

Sem:T-BiomechOlympics&Para-

This seminar focuses on the science underlying the technological, training, and adaptive advances that Olympic and Paralympic Athletes utilize to excel in their sports. The focus is to understand how technology and technique have capitalized on biomechanical principles to achieve superlative athletic achievements. Students read and discuss research findings from primary sources to understand how innovations in sport have been achieved and evaluate the effectiveness of new technology and techniques.

Human Anat & Physio I

This course examines the structures and physiology of human body systems. It is a study of the structure and function of the human body including cells, tissues and organs of the following systems: integumentary, skeletal, muscular and nervous systems, as well as the special senses. This course emphasizes the interrelationships among body systems and regulation of physiological functions. This course investigates the structure and function of the human body. Prerequisite: Bio 132, or one college-level biology, chemistry, or physics course with lab. Enrollment limited to 30.

Science of Human Movement

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.

Sport:American Dream

This course helps students explore the way that sport overlaps with and directly influences many aspects of the "American Dream" such as politics, economics, and racial and gender based (in)equality. Students investigate historical and current trends in sport and have the opportunity to examine individuals who had an impact on sport and American society.

Intro Sports Coaching

This course introduces students to the principles of coaching that are applicable to all sports. Content includes the following areas of sport science: pedagogy, leadership, psychology, physiology, recruiting, group dynamics, growth and development, and areas of health and wellness related to the well-being of athletes. Enrollment limited to 20.
