Our well-established sports biomechanics masters enables you to specialise in the physics of sport - the area of science concerned with the analysis of human movement. Through the measurement and simulation of movement, it facilitates a greater understanding of human performance in sporting and recreational activities. This understanding can then be used to improve performance and reduce injury risk. The programme contains cutting-edge content, ranging from experimental techniques and equipment requirements and use, through to the latest theoretical considerations and research problems. You will benefit from access to a large designated teaching laboratory, which can be partitioned into two fully equipped laboratories, allowing independent activities to be performed simultaneously. Throughout the programme you will use key pieces of biomechanics equipment, including Vicon motion analysis systems, force plates, wireless electromyography (EMG), and isokinetic dynamometers, together with the programming language MATLAB for data processing and analysis, and software for computer simulation and inertia modelling. The programme culminates in an original research project wherein you will use the laboratory and equipment independently to collect and analyse data to answer a research question.
