KNPE 447 Advanced Exercise Physiology Laboratory Units: 3.00
The physiological systems involved in exercise will be explored in weekly laboratory experiments by imposing experimental disturbances during exercise. Students will develop skills in reading and interpreting research, predicting the effects of experiment disturbances, and testing, analyzing and interpreting physiological responses in their experiments. The course format is intended to prepare students for knowledge consumption, application, and creation in the field of exercise physiology.
Learning Hours: 120 (24 Lecture, 36 Laboratory, 12 Online Activity, 48 Private Study)
Offering Faculty: Faculty of Arts and Science
Course Learning Outcomes:
- Understand and explain the role of physiological systems in determining exercise performance and tolerance to effectively assess physiological responses to exercise.
- Apply conceptual understanding of physiological function to predict the effects of disturbances on physiological responses in exercise.
- Apply measurement techniques and experimental protocol principles to obtain valid physiological response data.
- Compose laboratory reports to effectively communicate scientific background, laboratory methods, results and their interpretation.
- Integrate methodological and conceptual expertise developed in this course to independently develop, explore and present findings on a question about physiological function in exercise.
