Degree Requirements Students must complete 48 credits: 28 credits of required coursework20 credits of elective courseworkStudents with a Masters or Doctorate degrees can receive up to 12 transfer credits. In addition to completion of coursework, the following elements are required of all students: Completion of Qualifying Exam after the second yearDevelopment, implementation, and completion of original laboratory researchOral defense of dissertation proposalCompletion of written doctoral dissertationOral defense of doctoral dissertation Curriculum Movement Science Core Courses Instrumentation Theory and Application This course is designed for the student to have a greater understanding of computer hardware, software, and biological signal transduction and processing. Computer architecture and operating systems are discussed and students gain a basic understanding of software programming logic and structures. Basic knowledge of circuits, signal capture and transduction with relevant hardware is reviewed.  Students apply course content to solve practical problems, relevant to their individual research experiences.  [3 credit hrs] Movement Science I &＃8211; Bioenergetics This course provides comprehensive knowledge of skeletal muscle bioenergetics: structure, function, physiologic regulation of substrate utilization, and physiological/pathological adaptation (mutability) to external and internal stimuli. Course content will include skeletal muscle histology, function of intracellular & extracellular muscle proteins, mechanisms of contraction, myogenesis, utilization of fuel substrates including hormonal control, and the effects of exercise, mechanical properties of muscle, and the response of muscle to training, disuse, and selected pathologies. [3 credit hrs] Movement Science II &＃8211; Biomechanics The focus of this course is on understanding mechanical principles as they relate to the study of movement. The course uses an integration of quantitative principles and published literature to explore methods to study biomechanics and also to learn how the human body responds to mechanical stimuli in healthy and selected disease conditions. [3 credit hrs] Movement Science III &＃8211; Biocontrol The goal of this course is to better understand how the nervous system controls movement and how human movement is affected after pathology to the nervous system. Each class session consists of an introductory lecture followed by student-led discussions of selected papers. During the course, students gain insight into how the enormous repertoire of human movements (e.g. gait, posture, voluntary hand movements) is controlled by a distributed motor system (e.g. spinal cord, basal ganglia, motor cortex), how pathology to the system alters movements, and how various structures in the system may or may not be able to compensate for each other. [3 credit hrs] Statistics Series Students choose 3 courses (minimum of 9 credit hrs) from the following choices: Quantitative Methods IQuantitative Methods IIApplied Multivariate AnalysesHierarchical Linear ModelsIntroduction to Statistics for Clinical ResearchIntermediate Statistics for the Health SciencesEpidemiology for Clinical ResearchDesigning Outcomes and Clinical Research Each course is 3 credit hrs.  Specific course choices are made based on the student’s prior statistical background and training needs, after consultation with the mentor.  Teaching Practicum The teaching practicum provides an opportunity for the doctoral student to engage in a focused, mentored teaching experience. The student’s teaching should be in a content area relevant to the student’s area of interest. Students are expected to provide at least six hours of student experiences, with a minimum of 4 hours of lecture presentation to an appropriate educational audience. [2 credit hrs] Program Seminar Program Seminar is a 1 credit hr course.  Students are required to enroll for 4 semesters [4 credit hrs total].  The Program Seminar series is designed to fulfill a variety of training needs that may not be covered, or not covered with sufficient depth, in formal scientific coursework or with individual research training within the laboratories. Topics rotate across semesters and include: individual development career plans, scientific rigor, grantsmanship, obtaining positions beyond the PhD, and other career and science topics of interest as they arise.  Ethics: Responsible Conduct of Research Students receive formal training in the responsible conduct of research via a 1 credit hr course, and informal training throughout their educational experience. The formal course complies with the NIH training standards and consists of 2-3 hours of online modules, followed by 8 or more hours of face-to-face sessions that may be lectures, panels, case discussions, or role playing.  Some aspects of course content are required by all, and other aspects allow students to choose topics that are of interest or are most relevant to their research experiences.  Electives Electives are an important part of the Movement Science education.  Our students come from a variety of educational backgrounds and pursue a variety of questions related to movement.  Thus, an essential part of the student’s education is to tailor elective coursework to meet their scientific interests and their training needs.  There is an abundance of elective courses across the Medical and Danforth campuses available to our students.  Elective courses provide a great opportunity for our students to engage with the outstanding faculty and graduate student body available at Washington University.  The elective courses most often taken by our students include: Neural Systems; Cellular Neurobiology; Cells, Systems, & Disease I and/or II; Orthopedic Biomechanics of Bone, Joints, Cartilage, and Tendons; Human Anatomy; The Psychology of Aging; Genetics & Genomics of Disease; and Scientific Writing & Publishing.  Students work with their mentor and the Movement Science Program Director to identify the elective courses that will optimize their educational experience.  Elective coursework may be taken either before or after qualifying examinations, which occur after the second year of study.  Education Doctor of Physical Therapy PhD in Movement Science Application &＃038; Admissions Curriculum &＃038; Degree Requirements Tuition &＃038; Financial Assistance PhD FAQ Current PhD Students PhD Alumni Steering Committee Dual DPT-PhD Postdoctoral Research Fellowship Clinical Residency in Orthopaedics Alumni Clinical Residency in Women&＃8217;s Health Movement System Impairment Syndromes Courses Continuing Education for Clinical Instructors (CEUs) Schedule a Student Visit Program in Physical TherapyMailing Address:Campus Box 8502, 4444 Forest Park Ave., Suite 1101St. Louis, MO 63108-2212314-286-1400Contact us Facebook Instagram Twitter YouTube For Patients Central West End &＃8211; @4240 4240 Duncan Ave., Suite 120 St. Louis, MO 63110 Central West End &＃8211; 4444 4444 Forest Park Ave., Suite 1210 St. Louis, MO 63108-2212 For patient appointments, call 314-286-1940   O&＃8217;Fallon 1 Progress Point Parkway O&＃8217;Fallon, MO 63368 Danforth Campus Zetcher House 6614 Shepley Dr., Suite 1051 Clayton, MO 63105   Resources Alumni Disclosures Maps & Directions ©2024 Washington University in St. Louis
