  • Graduate study in biomechanics at TWU

    The Department of Kinesiology at Texas Woman's University (TWU) is currently
    seeking graduate assistants interested in biomechanics. TWU is a CO-ED
    school and male students are strongly encouraged to apply.

    The doctoral program in Kinesiology at TWU was established in as early as
    1950s. Exciting developments are currently in progress in the biomechanics
    graduate program at TWU. Competent and highly motivated graduate students
    (preferrably doctoral students) are all welcome.

    The Biomechanics Laboratory at TWU is well-equipped with two 500-Hz video
    cameras, four 120-Hz cameras, and six 60-Hz cameras with complete array of
    accessories. We currently have two AMTI force plates and a telemetry EMG
    system (Noraxon TeleMyo) in use. The Laboratory is housed in a modern
    gym-classroom-office complex with its total square footage being 6,300
    sq-ft, including two facualty offices, one large office area for the
    students, a 'humongous' dedicated data collection room, and several
    specialized prep or analysis rooms. The main research emphases of the
    Biomechanics Laboratory are human mobility biomechanics and sports
    biomechanics. Joint research programs with areas such as PT, dance, adapted
    PE are also currently under development. Please visit the Laboratory website
    at http://kwon3d.com/twu_biom for more information regarding the program,
    research projects, facility and equipment, etc.

    Proficiency in math, engineering (mechanics), and/or computer programming is
    highly desired but this is not an absolute requirement for admission.
    Deficiency areas will be determined by the doctoral advising committee and
    students will be required to take their deficiency courses before they start
    the main component of the graduate work. International students will be
    required to demonstrate their proficiency in English as well. An interview
    is required for all the doctoral program applicants, but alternative means
    are available for the international students who are currently residing
    outside the US.

    Those who are interested in the biomechanics program at TWU, please contact
    me immediately. I look forward to hearing from many competent and highly
    motivated applicants.
