Analyzing kinetic and kinematic outcomes in sports

Coursework credits for Bachelor and Master students

Background and aim

Do you enjoy doing hands-on science in the lab or from behind your computer at home? And do you want to see the value of scientific methods for real life practical applications? Then please apply! In this specific project we investigate the potential use of kinetic outcomes for sports. We do this using the musculoskeletal model Myonardo. Research questions focus on which outcomes are suitable from a coach's perspective to help optimize performance and prevent overloading.

Your assignment

For this project we are always looking for motivated students with the skills to conduct literature searches, help collect and process experimental data, and/or do analyses. If you are not intimidated by having to work with Qualisys, Xsens, and/or Matlab, then this might be the place for you to do your research project!

Possible Projects

BSc Research project or thesis; MSc Research project, thesis or work experience

What else do you need to know?

You will be working at the department of Movement Science located at Horstmarer Landweg 50 in Münster. Parts of the assignment can be completed from remote.
