MSc in Kinesiology - Biomechanics in Bloomington United States | Indiana University Bloomington

This program explores the mechanical principles of human movement through an interdisciplinary lens, concentrating on gait analysis, energy expenditure during walking, and lower limb injury mechanisms. As part of a broader human performance curriculum, the biomechanics specialization examines movement mechanics from multiple perspectives. Students will investigate walking patterns, energy dynamics in locomotion, and injury causation in the lower limbs, equipping them for careers in sports technology innovation or scientific research. The curriculum integrates studies across human performance domains to comprehend the mechanical, neurological, and physiological components of motion, while developing expertise in statistical analysis, data interpretation, and biomechanical study methodologies. With faculty guidance, students can customize their learning through approved electives and participate in hands-on research within the Biomechanics Laboratory.
