What we know

From the catalog
In the first half of the course we explore the statics and dynamics needed to understand human posture and movement. This include laboratory experiences with biomechanics in various modalities of human movement (walking, jumping, various sports). This first module provides you with the scientific and engineering knowledge to engineer systems that work with human movement. In the second half of the course we explore occupational ergonomics, the science that uses knowledge of human capabilities and limitations to improve the design the work environment. It will cover relevant human anatomy, physical human capabilities in terms of physiology and biomechanics, allowing you to use this information to practice ergonomics in occupational and research settings.
