PE 484 - Applied Sport Biomechanics

3 credits

Description
Develop an understanding of the fundamental anatomical and mechanical concepts pertaining to human movement, and develop a systematic approach to qualitatively analyzing sports movements observed in a teaching/coaching/training situation. Laboratory experiences to increase understanding about human motion will examine muscle function using electromyography (EMG), isokinetic strength testing, lifting mechanics, gait analysis using a force platform, and visual and anatomical analysis of sport movement.

Note
Open to graduate students. Graduate students are required to do additional work of a research nature. Placement of interns or practicum participants is conditional on the availability of internships and the University assumes no absolute responsibility to place each and every student in an internship or practicum.
