Biomechanics and neuromotor control involves applying physics principles to biological movement systems. Neuromotor Control encompasses the neural mechanisms and pathways that regulate biological motion. This specialization integrates mechanical and electromyographic analysis of human movement with neurophysiological insights into the neuronal systems engaged during movement planning and execution. The combination of biomechanics and neuroscience forms a foundation for comprehending how the brain directs body and limb movements. Students will acquire valuable expertise applicable to fields including physical therapy, rehabilitation medicine, robotics, psychology, and neuroscience.
