  1. Sports Medicine Welcome

  2. Course Description Sports medicine is the branch of medicine that addresses the prevention and treatment of injuries occurring to both athletes and the active population. Basic human anatomy and physiology theory provide the framework of study, within which the field of Sports Medicine will be explored. Students will learn how the body systems function and interact through physical activity, and develop a thorough understanding of the musculoskeletal system. Students will include care and prevention of injuries, protective wrapping techniques, stretching methods, and overall wellness. This knowledge will serve as a baseline for understanding the physiological response to injury and improving performance. This course provides a strong academic foundation for students interested in pursuing majors in sports medicine, pre-medical, pre-dental, or a variety of allied health programs at the university level.
