EXS 315 - Anatomical Kinesiology Anatomical aspects of human movement. Emphasis on the skeletal, muscular, mechanical, structural and functional aspects of anatomy. Prerequisite: BIO 206 or BIO 301. (3 cr. hr.)
Frequency code A = offered every semester
Student Learning Outcomes
Upon successful completion of this course, students will be able to:
- Describe the foundations of kinesiology including the basic concepts related to human movement (anatomical terminology and nomenclature, planes and axes, biomechanics, neuromuscular fundamentals, types of muscular contractions and how they impact joint movements).
- Identify functional anatomy including major muscles, bones, and soft tissue structures of the human body including their function and impact on human movement.
- Examine functional body movements/exercise to identify mechanical aspects of movement including stability, joint action, planes of motion, axes of motion, joint structure and function.
