The mission of the our M.S. program in Biomechanics (MSBiomech) is to prepare students for advanced studies in human movement science, medical career paths such as physical therapy and medicine, and employment in areas of exercise science (research associates, laboratory technicians, academia). The MSBiomech would prepare students to enter a variety of career paths. The biomechanics field is diverse, therefore job descriptions are just as diverse. Often jobs are in research and development with specialization in orthopedics or movement analysis. Specialization in orthopedics involves working with orthopedic surgeons in research and development of surgical procedures, instrumentation and equipment. Movement analysis is related to investigation of injuries (cause and prevention) or performance. Movement analysis utilizes instrumentation including high speed cameras, force measurement, electromyography and computer software to analyze human movement. This is often related to technique analysis and/or the design and development of equipment. Gait analysis (e.g., walking, running) is a common area of interest for biomechanics, although all aspects of human movement are investigated. Biomechanists work with physicians, physical therapists, athletic trainers, coaches, and athletes in determining the efficiency of movement for preventing injuries and improving performance. These affiliations along with access to the latest technology in research equipment and software make for a perfect environment for this major.
