The mission of the Biomechanics Laboratory is to discover and disseminate knowledge concerning the biomechanics of human movement through research, teaching, and service. The Biomechanics Laboratory is committed to use the best of the available resources to benefit the students and the community. The Biomechanics Laboratory provides students with research, educational, and clinical service experiences.
Students acquire skills and theoretical knowledge relative to human motion analysis.
Such experiences prepare graduate and undergraduate students to seek employment as motion analysis laboratory technicians and adjuncts in work hardening or health care programs. Many students choose to pursue additional academic training including medical and clinical degrees, and advanced graduate study in exercise science. Expanding the scope of community services. Recruiting outstanding undergraduate and graduate students. Contributing to the Bioenergetics Ph.D. program to be established in the School.
