Community Outreach

The Division of Biomechanics and Research Development participates regularly in community outreach events. Organizations that we have worked with include KANEKO, the Omaha Henry Doorly Zoo, University of Nebraska Medical Center, local public and private schools and universities, and more!

Annual Open House

Hosted annually in September, the open house allows community members, prospective students, and potential collaborators to tour and interact with live demonstrations in research labs and talk with current students and faculty.

Building Tours

We offer tours of the research labs in the Biomechanics Research Building. These tours can be tailored to the needs of the group.

Students from Sherman Elementary participate in a tour of the Virtual Reality Lab.

National Biomechanics Day

National Biomechanics Day was founded in 2016 and is a world-wide celebration of Biomechanics, focusing on informing students from the community about the field of Biomechanics. Each year we host student groups from the Greater Omaha area.
