PhD Biomechanics and Kinesiology - Physical Activity Concentration
The doctoral degree in biomechanics and kinesiology at the University of Nebraska at Omaha (UNO) is a joint program between the Department of Biomechanics and the School of Health and Kinesiology. The degree is based on the physiology, biochemistry, biophysics, motor control and development, and psychology of human movement. The program is aimed at developing researchers who are working to improve movement function and physical activity using evidence-based approaches through interdisciplinary clinical and translational research. A problem-solving approach is used across the age and health spectrum for disease prevention, health enhancement, physical rehabilitation, and motivation for physical activity. The program offers four areas of concentration in biomechanics, physiology of exercise, motor development and control, and physical activity.
