  • Re. Graduate Assistantship

    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.
