EXPH 3200 - Biomechanics
This course provides an understanding of basic biomechanical principles. This is an introduction to Biomechanics, and will cover such topics as basic kinematics, basic kinetics, biomechanics of human motion at different sites in the body, linear kinematics, angular kinematics, linear kinetics, angular kinetics, and human motion in a fluid medium.
Requisites: C or better in BIOS 2030 or (3010 and 3015)
Credit Hours: 3
Repeat/Retake Information: May be retaken two times excluding withdrawals, but only last course taken counts.
Lecture/Lab Hours: 3.0 lecture
Grades: Eligible Grades: A-F,WP,WF,WN,FN,AU,I
Learning Outcomes: - Students will analyze human movement and make appropriate recommendation to improve movements in exercise.
- Students will demonstrate the knowledge and skills to applying mechanical principles to a biological system.
- Students will demonstrate their understanding of the use biomechanical measurement techniques and equipment for quantitatively and qualitatively assessing human movement.
- Students will demonstrate understanding of human movement using scientific and mechanical principles.
- Students will describe the relationship of anatomical function to common athletic activities.
- Students will identify the major muscle groups used in movement, including their origin, insertion, and function.
