- Description/content
- The Master's study programme in "Human Movement Analytics – Biomechanics, Motor Control, and Learning (Master of Science)" imparts knowledge and competencies based on basic research in movement science, biomechanics, and neuroscience. It develops methodological competencies, and it also opens up advanced research opportunities in the fields of movement analytics, biomechanics, behavioural science, and neurophysiologically oriented motor research. The curriculum focuses on the theoretical and methodological foundations for analysing human motion. The study programme gives students the opportunity to acquire competencies that will enable them to address basic and applied questions on a highest scientific level in health care and competitive sports, in orthopaedic and neurological rehabilitation, in ergonomics, and in occupational science.
Since its start in winter semester 21/22, the Human Movement Analytics – Biomechanics, Motor Control, and Learning (HMA: BMCL) degree programme is offered in English as a continuation of the previous Biomechanics – Motor Skill – Human Motion Analytics (BMB) degree programme.
