1999 Ph.D. Sport Biomechanics ‘Accuracy and reliability of propulsive force estimation in swimming’. Department of Sport Sciences, Brunel University
Personal Introduction
Welcome to my webpage. I currently lead the subject of Sport and Exercise Sciences and am programme coordinator for the MSc in Sport and Exercise Biomechanics. I teach at undergraduate and postgraduate level and currently supervise three PhD students, having just had one completion. I represent the Subject on the Faculty Management Team and am a member of Academic Board. I have led the subject for just over a year and during this time I have restructured the subject such that it is best placed to continue to deliver nationally recognised programmes and position itself to deliver national and international research and consultancy, thus contributing fully to the University Unlocking the Potential strategy. I am Charter Standard Football Club Secretary and enjoy coaching two Girls teams in the Sussex County Women’s and Girls Football League.
Current teaching
For the academic year 2009-2010, I will be responsible for the following modules
- Anatomy and Kinesiology (SPL103)
- Biomechanics of Sports Techniques (CPE104)
- Biomechanics and Performance Analysis in Sport and Exercise (SPL206)
- Advanced Biomechanics (SPL326)
- MSc Applied Techniques in Sport and Exercise Biomechanics (MSSDBM03/A)
I also teach on MSc Tissue Mechanics.
