Programa Interdisciplinar em Biomecânica e Ciências do Movimento MS

The mission of the Interdisciplinary Program in Biomechanics & Movement Science (BIOMS) is to advance the understanding of complex human systems through the interaction of experts who cross traditional divisions of academic study. We strive to train outstanding researchers who will contribute to the advancement of health science through translational and interdisciplinary research. Research findings are disseminated through peer-reviewed publications in high impact journals and presentations at national and international conferences. The BIOMS program comprises faculty from the Colleges of Arts & Sciences, Engineering, and Health Sciences who use an interdisciplinary approach to create a diverse educational and research environment.

The University of Delaware College of Health Sciences is a hub of multidisciplinary research, education, patient services, and public outreach. Our students are future clinicians, nurses, therapists, scientists, and other healthcare professionals who think big, dream bigger and strive to achieve better health for all people. We offer high-quality undergraduate and graduate programs, clinical research projects, and a rich array of the classroom, laboratory, and real-world clinical, service, and experiential learning opportunities. Our internationally recognized faculty and staff provide students with the tools to succeed and challenge them to change the world.

Our six departments and numerous programs encompass a broad and dynamic collection of healthcare specialties. In each, we create an experience that shapes changes in practice based on scientific evidence. We translate our strong platform in interdisciplinary science into health practices, therapies, and interventions to improve people’s lives. Our students receive early immersion into practice settings and access to our faculty’s world-class research programs. As a result, our graduates are well prepared to pursue careers in various health professions, as well as to continue their education in one of the medical fields or enter a field of graduate study. Our ultimate goal is to help students excel in their chosen profession in the arena of health.
