The Kinesiology course provides the students in the Doctor of Physical Therapy (DPT) degree program with a forum in which they learn to apply the basic science knowledge they are acquiring in their Anatomy course in a clinically relevant manner. A major emphasis of the Kinesiology course is for the students to develop their knowledge base related to human movement, to develop the skills of identification and palpation of various musculoskeletal structures, and to develop the skill of observation of human movement, including gait. This is accomplished through a series of lectures, discussions, labs and demonstrations.
