Dear Colleagues,
I would like to recruit an additional graduate student for Fall of 2002. This
assistantship provides full tuition, fees, and a living stipend. The student
would enter our MS or Ph.D. program in Kinesiology. Their specialist area of
study would be human biomechanics. Our program offers comprehensive advanced
training in the biomechanics of human motion. It includes classes in
Experimental Methods in Biomechanics and Motor Control, Advanced Biomechanics
of Human Movement, Modeling in Biomechanics, Forensic Biomechanics, Motor
Control, Neurophysiology, Muscle Physiology, Engineering of Human Work, and a
number of others.
My current research projects include the examination of: the performance of
sit-to-stand in the elderly; human movements involving impacts; and movements
involving a counter-movement. These areas are studied via experiments and
computer simulation modeling.
Letters of interest should be received as soon as possible, the search will
continue until a suitable candidate is found. For admission into the
Biomechanics Program, the main considerations are: (a) the course background
of the student (science courses, including physics, mechanics, mathematics,
computer science, anatomy, physiology, etc.); and (b) the student's
mathematics
("quantitative") GRE score should be in the 700's. Outstanding students from
the biological and engineering sciences are encouraged to apply.
