This module aims to further develop your theoretical knowledge of biomechanics acquired in level 4. It aims to further develop your ability to apply biomechanical principles to the analysis of human movement. You will gain theoretical knowledge of kinesiology, mechanical principles of movement, linear and angular kinematics and kinetics, and fluid mechanics. Furthermore you will gain practical knowledge and experience of executing practical laboratory activities to provide the skills required to monitor and evaluate human movement in laboratories and/or field settings.

 

The module also incorporates Personal Tutoring with the emphasis on developing study and learning skills and exploring strategies for effective learning in higher education (as part of personal development planning).
