The Exercise Science program within the Department of Health and Nutritional Sciences at South Dakota State University is recruiting master’s-level graduate students to engage in high-quality research in the area of biomechanics. Current research in the area of biomechanics include the mechanics of lower extremity injuries, gait mechanics in obese children, the mechanics of functional activities for people with multiple sclerosis, and balance control related to multiple sclerosis. The biomechanics lab is currently equipped with a Qualisys motion capture system with eight Oqus 3+ cameras, 3 AMTI force plates, and a Trigno wireless EMG system (16 sensors). For more information on biomechanics research opportunities please direct questions to Dr. Brad Bowser (605-688-4829 or bradley.bowser@sdstate.edu).
In addition to gaining experience in biomechanics research, graduate students will have the opportunity to serve as teaching assistants in PE 454 Biomechanics and/or various activity courses. Assistantships are 40% positions, which require a minimum of 20 hours per week and provide a 9-month stipend. All interested applications should go to http://www3.sdstate.edu/hns/graduate...pp-process.cfm and complete an application to the graduate school, an application to the Department of Health and Nutritional Sciences, and a cover letter with the information requested on the website to be considered for a graduate assistantship. We also strongly encourage you to contact Dr. Brad Bowser (605-688-4829 or bradley.bowser@sdstate.edu) if you are interested in applying.
Application Deadline May 2, 2014.
