一、課程簡介:
Research in Prosthetics and Orthotics
義肢與矯具學研究
Course Number: 548 M0950
Course Objective:
The research of biomedical science and engineering has advanced in recent years, which has obviously been reflected on the progress in the technical and clinical aspects of prosthetics and orthotics (P&O). This course will take students to explore some of the researchable areas in P&O. The objective of this course is to learn the background and the tools of research in P&O. The research topics will cover research fundamentals, normal human locomotion, human joint biomechanics, pathological gait and orthotic intervention, control and design of orthotic and prosthetic devices. Students will write a research proposal during the semester. The research proposal will be turned in and presented in the end of this course.
