4.00 Credits
The course is designed to provide students with a physiological perspective of how the human body responds, adjusts, and adapts to exercise. Course content includes study of energy transfer and energy expenditure at rest and during exercise, bioenergetics, contributions, and adaptations of the neuromuscular, pulmonary, and circulatory systems during exercise, environmental aspects (e.g., thermal stress, altitude, and microgravity) of physiology related to exercise performance, and body composition. Prerequisites: MVSC 201 and MVSC 202.Credit, three hours.
Prerequisite:
(MVSC 201 AND MVSC 202)
-
3.00 Credits
The course examines the relationship between skeletal, muscular, and neurological structures and function in the production of movement. Functional relationships among anatomical structures are identified and applied to fundamental movement skills. Students are introduced to qualitative anatomical analysis and neuromuscular assessment of dance and sport skills.Prerequisites: MVSC 201.Credit, three hours.
Prerequisite:
MVSC 201
-
3.00 Credits
This course examines fundamental mechanical principles involed in the process of the production of human movement and optimization of performance. Application of kinematics and kinetic principles to human movement are discussed and students are introduced to qualitative and quantitative mechanical analysis of human movement. Prerequisistes: MTSC 121 and MTSC 241 or PSYC 322 or SCWK 310. Credit, three hours.
Prerequisite:
(MTSC 121 AND MTSC 241 OR PSYC 322 OR SCWK 310)
-
4.00 Credits
This course presents practical experiences and theoretical knowledge in the selection, administration, and interpretation of various health-related fitness tests. Emphasis is placed on proper technique and cimmunication throughout the assessment process. Prerequisites: MVSC 201, MVSC 202 and MVSC 355. Credit, four hours.
Prerequisite:
MVSC 355
-
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
-
3.00 Credits
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: MVSC 201, MVSC 202, MVSC 257, MVSC 355. Credit, three hours.
Prerequisite:
(MVSC 201 AND MVSC 202 AND MVSC 355 AND MVSC 257)
-
3.00 Credits
The course examines and compares types of research. Students will write a literature review and construct a research design. Research protocol, statistical analysis as it relates to research design, reporting techniques, APA formatting, and reference styles are incorporated. This is a writing emphasis class. Prerequisites: MTSC 241 or PSYC 322 or SCWK 310 and ENGL 101 and ENGL 102. Credit, three hours.
Prerequisite:
(MTSC 241 OR PSYC 322 OR SCWK 310 AND ENGL 101 AND ENGL 102)

-
1.00 - 6.00 Credits
An opportunity to actively engage in a mentored reserach project in a Movement Science discipline. A scholarly report is required. The sequence begins in the spring semester of the junior year, laying the groundwork for development of a full research project. Pre-requisite: Second semester junior or senior standing in Movement Science. Credit, one to three hours each semester.
Prerequisite:
(MVSC 355 AND MVSC 360)
Corequisite:
AND MVSC 362 AND MVSC 470
-
3.00 Credits
An introduction to the study of how the nervous system controls muscle activation and movement. Relationships among neural and muscle tissues, neural elements and force production, acute and chronic adaptations to stress, neural plasticity, neural elements of movement disorders, prevention of and recovery from injury will be discussed.
Prerequisite:
(MVSC 255 AND MVSC 360)
-
3.00 Credits
This course is an introduction to the biomechanical properties and behavior of human tissues and joints. Human tissue behavior under various loading conditions, including, sitting, standing, gait, and fundamental movement skills will be discussed. In addition, the development and etiology of fractures, strains, sprains, arthroplasty will be presented and discussed.
Prerequisite:
(MVSC 361 AND MVSC 360)
