Study in the Discipline of Human Movement is offered by the Sydney School of Health Sciences. The Human Movement major and minor are available to students in the Health stream as a second major or minor only.
A major in Human Movement integrates anatomical, physiological and biomechanical principles related to human movement and will equip you with a background to assist in health service roles and the conduct of research and analysis of data relevant to the study of human movement.
The Human Movement major provides a strong foundation for further graduate study in fields such as physiotherapy and medicine (subject to meeting eligibility criteria).
The Human Movement major and minor requirements are listed in the Human Movement unit of study table.
