This site serves as a resource for faculty and students who are interested in biomechanics classes with information on the internet.  There are currently links to over 50 classes.


Exploratorium - Sport science site is a great site for kids that includes articles on the science of baseball, cycling, skateboarding and ice hockey.


Ariel Dynamics Inc - online reference library includes biomechanics research articles and links to other relevant sites.


Launched in 1994, BioMechanics is a monthly newsmagazine dedicated to total body movement and medicine. Biomechanics reaches 36,000 sports medicine and body movement specialists in orthopedic surgery, physical therapy, clinical athletic training, O&P, podiatry, pedorthics, physiatry, rehab and occupational therapy.
