SCHOOL OF HPER
UNIVERSITY OF NEBRASKA AT OMAHA
************************************************** *********
The Biomechanics/Anatomy Laboratory at the University of Nebraska at
Omaha and the School of HPER has two assistantship position available
for the Fall of 1999.
DEGREE OFFERED
Master of Science with major in Exercise Science.
Students in the school have a variety of backgrounds including
bioengineering, physical therapy, physical education, biology,
exercise science, and mathematics.
RESPONSIBILITIES
Duties include data collection for research, laboratory maintenance, calibration of
equipment, assisting (teaching laboratories and partially grading) in
classes such as Graduate Biomechanics, Undergraduate Biomechanics, and
Physiology and Anatomy. Research projects can range from laboratory
funded projects to academic research pursuits. Specific works include
evaluation of performance and human interaction with exercise
equipment and a variety of projects related to gait, injury
mechanisms, and basic lower extremity function.
STIPEND
$8,100 for academic year plus tuition waiver
ACADEMIC ADVISOR AND DIRECTOR OF THE
BIOMECHANICS/ANATOMY LABORATORY
Nick Stergiou, Ph.D.
Dr. Nick Stergiou is a biomechanist and an Assistant Professor in the School of HPER at
the University of Nebraska at Omaha. He received his Ph.D. in
biomechanics from The University of Oregon in 1995. Dr. Stergiou
received his undergraduate degree in physical education from The
Aristotle University, Thessaloniki, Greece in 1989 and his master's
degree in exercise science from The University of Nebraska at Omaha in
1991.
LABORATORY FACILITIES
The biomechanics laboratory is equipped
with a force plate, a four camera high speed video system, digitizing
stations, transducers (e.g. accelerometers), and analysis software.
The biomechanics laboratory is housed in the state of the art HPER
instructional facility which also includes: Motor Development Lab,
Exercise Physiology Lab, a 12 stations Computer Lab dedicated mostly
to Anatomy, Large Activity Areas and Courts, and a 50 meter pool. Our
collaborative work with the Departments of Orthopedic Biomechanics and
Physical Therapy of the Universities of Nebraska and Creighton Medical
Centers (both just a 5 minute drive), and the newly developed
Institute of Engineering and Technology at the University of Nebraska
at Omaha, also provides an extended laboratory environment for
research related activities.
APPLICATIONS
Applications must be received by February 1, 1999.
