OCCT 5180 - Biomechanics (3)

This course is designed to build on prior knowledge of human anatomy and will focus on human motion, forces that effect motion, and the principles underlying assessment of joint motion, muscle strength, muscle tone, motor control, and coordination. Students will learn and apply the principles of biomechanics and kinesiology to human motion needed for all functional daily activities within the context of occupational performance. Prerequisite(s): One semester of college physics with a lab, OCCT 5000, OCCT 5010, OCCT 5050, OCCT 5110, OCCT 5160, and OCCT 5170.
