-
3.00 Credits
A study of sequential changes and characteristics of physical growth, motor development, and motor learning across the lifespan relative to physical activity. An examination of factors associated with individual differences in acquiring and learning motor skills during childhood, adolescence, and adulthood. Emphasis is given to current theoretical frameworks (i.e., dynamical systems and information processing) as they are applied to the instruction and evaluation of motor skills. Three semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course will involve in-depth study of selected contemporary topics. Topics to be covered will be selected by the PEES Department in cooperation with other educational agencies. This course may be repeated for additional credit as topics change. Three semester hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course investigates topics in the sub-disciplines of the field of Exercise Science, such as biomechanics, exercise physiology, and nutrition. Topics will vary from semester to semester. Three credit hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course examines advanced, theory, controversies, and techniques utilized in the design of and strength and conditioning programs. Validity and reliability of common performance tests and training techniques will be explored. The laboratory portion of the course includes administration of performance tests and instruction in program design and technique. Three credit hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides a thorough evaluation of the mechanical basis of human movement. Fundamental mechanical principles affecting human movement during locomotion and a variety of daily activity are considered. Techniques and methods of mechanics, quantitative video analysis, isometric and isokinetic muscle force, electromyography, and research evaluation are incorporated into laboratory projects. Three credit hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course offers an in-depth overview of work physiology, including cellular respiration, ventilation, cardiovascular dynamics, muscle physiology, the endocrine system, environmental aspects of exercise, and the anthropometric, histologic, and biochemical adaptive response to physical training. Three credit hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course covers every aspect of the heart and circulatory system from the anatomical, biophysical, molecular and cellular underpinning of function to the integrative nature of each component of cardiovascular regulation. Three credit hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course provides practical experience in kinesiology. It offers instruction leading to rehabilitation proficiency in a framework for the observation, analysis, and description of human movement on the normal pathological spectrum. Three credit hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course begins with a description of the immune responses to exercise and then proceeds to an in-depth study of the underlying physiological, biochemical, and molecular biological processes involved in these responses. Three credit hours.
-
3.00 Credits
This course investigates the dietary influences on prominent chronic diseases (e.g., cardiovascular disease, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and osteoporosis). Additional emphases is placed on understanding disease mechanisms, developing a wide spectrum of food knowledge, exploring functional foods to avoid rigid diets, and analyzing various types and fundamental flaws of nutrition research. Three credit hours.
