COURSE CURRICULUM

The MSc in Sport and Clinical Biomechanics offers a comprehensive curriculum designed to develop both theoretical understanding and practical skills in human movement analysis. Central to the program is the research component, beginning with a module in research methods, which equips students with the essential tools for designing, conducting, and interpreting scientific studies. This is complemented by a substantial research project, allowing students to apply these methods to real-world problems, fostering independent inquiry and advanced analytical skills. Practical competencies are emphasized through modules focused on measurement techniques in movement analysis, muscle performance, and biomechanical assessments in sports, enabling students to accurately evaluate human movement and physical performance using state-of-the-art tools and methodologies. The program also addresses clinical applications, with dedicated modules in clinical movement analysis, where students learn to assess and interpret movement patterns in populations with musculoskeletal or neurological conditions. To ensure readiness for professional practice, the curriculum includes a module on professional practice in sport and clinical biomechanics, preparing graduates to operate ethically, effectively, and confidently in clinical, research, or sports performance environments. Overall, the program integrates rigorous research training with applied skills, producing graduates capable of contributing to both scientific advancement and practical solutions in sport and clinical biomechanics.
