Biomechanics United

Biomechanics United provides both graduate and undergraduate students the opportunity to network and interact with one another outside a classroom or laboratory setting.

Biomechanics United is an American Society of Biomechanics student body chapter and registered student organization at UNO. Biomechanics United provides both graduate and undergraduate students the opportunity to network and interact with one another outside a classroom or laboratory setting. The group is student run and student focused with an emphasis on building greater relationships amongst the biomechanics community at UNO.

As an American Society of Biomechanics student body chapter, Biomechanics United also provides students an opportunity to network and develop relationships with Biomechanics students at other universities across the country. The group was formed in the Fall of 2018 by Dr. Brian Knarr, as the advisor, and several graduate students to provide academic, professional, and social events to students interested in biomechanics.

Some of these events have included panels with professionals to provide insight on jobs in industry and how to perform well in interviews, as well as team building events such as an escape room, happy hours, intramurals, and more. By providing events that benefit both graduate and undergraduate students alike, Biomechanics United has been working to bridge the social gap between undergraduate and graduate students, something that has become a primary goal in the group’s second year.

Since its conception in 2018, Biomechanics United continues to expand and evolve. The group has begun to assist in planning the Annual Human Movement Variability/Great Plains Biomechanics Conference hosted by the department each year. It is Biomechanics United’s goal to expose students to the planning process of a large meeting as well as to improve student networking events during the meeting.

As the group continues to grow and develop, the goal of Biomechanics United will be to continue to bring graduate and undergraduate biomechanics student together to build comradery and prepare its members for their future careers.
