Kinesiology deals with human motion, its control, and motorial learning in relation to the biomechanical parameters of the locomotor apparatus. Rehabilitation relates to this knowledge in order to restore or improve locomotor functions when a diseases disorder, injuries, or congenital defects appear. The program of doctoral studies in kinesiology and rehabilitation is based mainly on a Master's degree in medicine, physiotherapy, ergotherapy, and other master’s or engineering disciplines. Their scientific knowledge is used in rehabilitation (eg biomedical and clinical technology, biomedical engineering, prosthetics, biocybernetics, robotics, and information technology). The proposed doctoral study program focuses on the objectification of physiological parameters of human motorial disorders, identifying the causes of movement disorders, and the possibility of therapeutic intervention. The methodology of the individual research projects will be adapted to the specific objectives of the work, the equipment of the training workplace, and the research and professional focus of the trainer and the student. Methods of functional magnetic resonance imaging, ultrasound, electrophysiological methods, spiroergometry, posturography, and more will be used in the measurement methodology. The program is carried out without any specialization.
