S313 Sports and Exercise Biomechanics
This module offers an understanding of basic mechanical concepts and principles that govern human movement.
The students will be immersed in activities encompassing qualitative and quantitative analysis of physical activities. Students will experience laboratory and field settings to analyse human performance using basic concepts of mechanics and anatomy. Opportunities will be presented for the application of biomechanical concepts to understand the movements by qualitative and quantitative approaches. At the end of this module, students will appreciate the factors of efficient/inefficient human performance and will be able to provide remediation of errors using safe and scientific approaches.
