Description
This course will introduce students to current concepts and methods used to collect, analyze, and present biomechanical data. Course material will emphasize how to calculate kinematics and kinetics to describe how musculoskeletal forces create human movement. Laboratory data will be analyzed using standard biomechanical and software tools. Students should have a basic knowledge of mechanics, physics, and familiarity with MATLAB or another programming language.
