The Kinesiology department at 黑料福利网 East Bay (黑料福利网) has an array of facilities to support its teaching, scholarship, and service missions. There are two dedicated laboratory spaces for biomechanics and exercise physiology. The larger, (5,107 sq. ft.), PE-152 lab with 27’1” high ceilings and hardwood floors houses an 8-camera Vicon system with Nexus software, an AMTI BMS600600 in-ground force plate, a Noraxon wireless EMG system, an instrumented Treadmetrix treadmill, metabolic carts, Biopac EMG systems, upper and lower-body Wingate testing equipment, Vertec vertical jump measurement equipment, and exercise equipment such as free weights, squat rack, medical grade treadmills, and cycle ergometers. The other (1,600 sq. ft.) PE-139 lab houses body composition testing, and a peripheral quantitative computed tomography for bone composition analysis.
The PE-152 lab also includes 20 laptops, and 10 tablets for undergraduate and graduate use. These devices provide Microsoft office, Adobe Acrobat Suite, Prism statistical software, 3B anatomy study application, Dartfish Motion Analysis software, and Rstudio programming software. All computers provide access to the 黑料福利网 Library interlibrary loan services for research. Further, another computer lab is available within the university with 36 personal computers networked to servers with professional statistical software and data sets. Both hardware and software are state-of-the-art. Applied and theoretical statistics classes use the lab for demonstrations of statistical computing and for class projects in which students learn practical data analytic skills that aid them in the transition from school to work.
The Physical Education building has a main gym that is used for activity classes (e.g., basketball, badminton, and volleyball). In addition, there is a state-of-the-art fitness facility used for classes and also the department's Get Fit, Stay Fit Program that provides personal training and fitness classes for faculty and staff and professional development opportunities for KIN majors. The teaching spaces include two classrooms that are primarily used for kinesiology classes and a number of outdoor teaching spaces that include soccer, softball, and baseball fields, tennis courts, golf nets, a track and a pool.
