Abstract

Human Performance Laboratory (HPL) is a high-technology research facility, designed with multiple integrated spaces to facilitate interdisciplinary teaching, research, and engagement. The Human Performance Laboratory (HPL) at Wichita State University is dedicated to providing students majoring in Exercise Science within the Department of Human Performance Studies with the opportunity to utilize the knowledge and skills obtained during the educational process. To allow for this hands-on experience, the laboratory provides athletes of all ability levels, the Wichita community, and persons looking to begin a lifetime of exercise the ability to receive up-to-date evaluations and recommendations. These evaluations consist of examination of cardiovascular risk, biomechanical and motion analysis, fitness and training status, and guidance on how to improve and implement fitness and sport specific training into their lives. The HPL also facilitates interdisciplinary collaborative opportunities through research, entrepreneurship, product development, and private industry projects. HPL promotes the integration of student learning with application to explore and address industry and societal needs associated with human exercise performance and fundamental human physiology in sport, exercise, and health.
