This course will involve the application of basic knowledge related to the field of Kinesiology. Students will utilize medical and scientific terms to describe the patterns, mechanics, and physiology associated with human movement. Students will also be trained to effectively analyze movement to recognize inefficiencies and disorders. Prerequisites: BIOL 207 and BIOL 208.Credit: three hours
Prerequisite:
BIOL 207 AND BIOL 208
-
0.00 - 4.00 Credits
This course will discuss the applications of kinematic and kinetic principles to human movement. Students will also be introduced to qualitative and quantitative mechanical analysis of human movement.Prerequisites: BIOL 207 and BIOL 208.Credit: four hours
Prerequisite:
BIOL 207 AND BIOL 208

3.00 Credits
The course exposes students to epidemiological methods that are relevant to the study of physical activity. The course is intended to enhance students' ability to understand and apply epidemiological methods to physical activity-related research. Basic epidemiological study design, methods, and issues pertinent to the study of physical activity are presented early in the course. Subsequent classes are structured to provide opportunity for in-depth analysis and discussion of how epidemiological methods are used to study injury patterns and trends and physical activity behavior.Prerequisites: MVSC-201 and MVSC-202.Credit: three hours.
Prerequisite:
MVSC 201 AND MVSC 202

4.00 Credits
This course presents practical experiences and theoretical knowledge in the selection, administration, and interpretation of various health-related fitness tests. This course provides the theoretical knowledge and practical skills to design personalized exercise programs that elicit specific physiological responses and adaptations. Emphasis is placed on prescribing safe and effective individualized cardiorespiratory, musculoskeletal and weight management programs. Prerequisites: KINE 300, KINE 302, and KINE 255Credit: four hours
Prerequisite:
KINE 300 AND KINE 302 AND KINE 255

3.00 Credits
This course is designed to provide students with a practical learning experience in the field. This course will expose students to professional opportunities related to the desired career path to help students make informed decisions about the senior capstone internship experience. Prerequisites: KINE 110, KINE 302, and KINE 265.Credit: three hours
Prerequisite:
KINE 110 AND KINE 302 AND KINE 265
-
3.00 Credits
Students will apply concepts and theories of research design in a laboratory setting. Small experiments related to problems associated with human movement will be performed by student researchers under the supervision of the Kinesiology faculty. Students will gain experience related to the skills of reading, writing, and reviewing high volumes of research-based literature. This course is, therefore, highly reading and writing intensive. Prerequisites: KINE 110, KINE 302, KINE 265, and instructor approval.
Prerequisite:
KINE 110 AND KINE 302 AND KINE 265

3.00 Credits
This course is designed to provide an overview of basic orthopaedic injuries and related musculoskeletal system dysfunctions as well as rehabilitation of those injuries and dysfunctions. Common orthopaedic injuries of all major musculoskeletal structures and tissues are discussed moving up the kinetic chain from the feet up the lower extremities, through the spine and out the upper extremities to the hands. Common injuries such as sprains, strains, fractures, tendinopathies, disc herniation, spinal stenosis, compartment syndromes, neural compression, carpal tunnel syndrome and thoracic outlet syndrome will be discussed. Anatomy and function of each body region will be reviewed prior to the discussion of injuries. Mechanisms of injury, tissue pathology and the tissue healing processes are reviewed. The role of inflammation in the healing of injured tissues will be explored and the variations in healing processes between tissues explained. A general rehabilitation process is discussed and rehabilitation concepts unique to specific injuries are explored. Basic principles of the major components of a rehabilitation program are explained. Methods of facilitating balance and neuromuscular control will be demonstrated. Modifications of common exercises to accommodate for injuries and allow continued participation in exercise routines will be presented. This course is appropriate for pre-allied health professionals and fitness professionals with an interest in orthopaedic injuries, musculoskeletal system rehabilitation and the construction of exercise programs that prevent, or accommodate for, musculoskeletal problems. Prerequisites: KINE-210, KINE- 319, and KINE-364.Credit: three hours.
Prerequisite:
KINE 210 AND KINE 319 AND KINE 364
-
4.00 Credits
Students will review exam topics through a combination of classroom and practical experience. Throughout this course, students will be taking practice Certified Strength and Conditioning Specialist exams. Students intending to enter the fitness field may work with athletes and should be able to design strength and conditioning programs. An emphasis will be placed on the acute and chronic adaptations to strength and conditioning programs, including methods such as, plyometrics, speed/agility/speed-endurance training, and core training. Prerequisite: KINE-364.Credit: four hours.
Prerequisite:
KINE 364

3.00 Credits
Students will discuss how physical activity in early childhood can establish a healthy lifestyle carried through adult hood. Additionally, students will identify special considerations necessary for individuals with metabolic, pulmonary, or cardiovascular disease. Furthermore, students will apply kinesiology principles to a variety of physical activity programs. Prerequisite: KINE-364.Credit: three hours.
Prerequisite:
KINE 364
