Emphasizing current research findings, this class focuses on energy metabolism, physiological responses to exercise, and exercise training techniques. Prerequisite: Human physiology; introduction to exercise physiology or equivalent.

This lab is intended to provide students with hands on experience to learn human anatomy. The lab primarily involves work with human specimen prosections and will cover only gross anatomy of the muscular, skeletal, and nervous systems. .

Topical offerings in the subject of Kinesiology

A presentation, through lectures and laboratory experiences, of laboratory procedures and biomedical instrumentation pertinent to exercise physiology laboratories and applied physiology research. Students are involved in a review of current research in each area of laboratory experimentation and participate as both subjects and investigators. Prerequisite: KINE 5430

Examines the nature and causes of disabling conditions and the motor needs and tolerances associated with these conditions. Enhances experience and skill in planning, assessing, prescribing, teaching, and evaluating instruction for individuals with disabilities in both school and non-school settings

Studies the physical and motor attributes of individuals with physical, sensory, and health disabilities. Addresses programming and instructional implications in physical education for these populations in regard to their ecological, psychological, social, and learning characteristics. Emphasizes developing and achieving functional physical education goals through planning, assessing, prescribing, teaching, and evaluating instruction.

This course examines nutrition as it relates to optimizing physical performance in active individuals. Recent research publications will be used to provide the latest information on these areas and to encourage critical evaluation of research.

This course will address the underlying neuroanatomy associated with cognitive function in healthy individuals as well as those with neurocognitive/psychiatric pathologies and diseases. Throughout the semester, students will become consumers of cross- disciplinary research addressing the influence of physical activity and cognitive function.

This course is designed to provide the athletic training student with a foundation of the theoretical fundamentals and principles of the therapeutic modalities used in the physical medicine environment. A systematic evidenced based approach of the how and why of the application of rehabilitation techniques will be addressed including theory and clinical techniques used to enhance the treatment and rehabilitation of injuries.

This course provides understanding how to prescribe exercise & nutrition as a medical therapy for health and well being. We will explore how each "dose" of exercise when taken in combination with nutrition, dietary supplements and/or pharmacological agents, impact the prevention/treatment of chronic disease.
