ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ Biomechanics Institute

Excellence in Teaching, Research Innovation, and Performance Enhancement are the three pillars of the ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ University Biomechanics Institute. This state-of-the-art 3D motion capture lab allows ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ students and faculty in the Department of Health and Sport Sciences and the Department of Engineering to work collaboratively to understand more about human movement. Students use the technology within their curriculum and have labs and projects take place in the Institute as early as their sophomore year! Students also work individually and in small groups to complete research projects. This experience of getting to work closely with a faculty member on a meaningful project is what ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½ is all about! The Biomechanics Institute allows students to have hands-on experience with cutting edge technology that will give them an advantage as they apply for graduate study or look for employment after ÐÇ¿Õ´«Ã½.
