Course summary

Human Movement Biomechanics looks to optimise human performance, reduce injury risk, and contribute to the rehabilitation and clinical management of athletes and clients.

On this course you will have the opportunity to develop expertise in the practical use of state-of-the-art biomechanics equipment, including three dimensional motion capture, marker less motion capture, inertial measurement, electromyography, and force and pressure analysis.

You will benefit from a wide range of teaching, learning, and assessment modes with an emphasis on practical skills and the use of technology.

Through your substantive research project, you will also have the flexibility to specialise in the area you are most passionate about.

You will benefit from our close relationships with local and national clinical and sports institutions such as the University of Dundee Institute of Sport and Exercise, NHS Tayside, multiple professional sports clubs, and sportscotland - Scotland's national agency for sport.

Graduates will be able to use their skills and knowledge to:

integrate sport, biomechanics, and rehabilitation within their respective professions and disciplines
contribute to multi- and interdisciplinary teams in sports teams, sports and exercise, clinical treatment, rehabilitation, and other settings
undertake a variety of work appointments and further advanced study opportunities if desired

Employers look for individuals who can work independently and deliver a research-focused approach to research, business, and/or practice. This course will teach you how to be an effective researcher and critical thinker, alongside transferable skills for any future career.

Specific future careers may include:

athlete support and sport science
clinical scientists and bioengineers
academia
community sport roles
health and exercise roles
healthcare and health promotion, including NHS and private providers
self-employed practitioners and company start-ups
