Examination of the physiological and biomechanical factors that predispose individuals to musculoskeletal injuries associated with physical activity. Students learn to identify injury mechanisms, evaluate internal and external loading, understand risk factors across the lifespan, and develop evidence-based strategies for injury prevention and rehabilitation.
