KNPE 254 Biomechanical Analysis of Human Movement Units: 3.00
Students will use biomechanical principles that describe how forces cause movement, from whole-body motions to tissue level processes, in order to solve problems in human movement. Biomechanical techniques and tools will be discussed, with a focus on applications in clinical movement disorders and performance in sport and exercise.
