Master of Science in Biomechanics

Ball State University

With the world moving at an ever-faster pace, it’s more important than ever to understand the mechanics of how people move. That’s what biomechanics is all about. Our master of science (MS) in exercise science with a concentration in biomechanics will prepare you for doctoral work or a career in clinical, industrial, or academic settings. Our Biomechanics Lab’s ongoing research projects challenge students to assess various aspects of human movement, including analyzing sports performance and injury mechanics, as well as evaluating individuals with movement disorders and disabilities. Engaging faculty work closely with students as they investigate cutting-edge topics such as the development and control of muscular strength, biomechanics of injury prevention, and performance optimization across a wide range of ages, abilities, and athletic disciplines.
