Overview

Physiology is one of the important subjects for study at the Faculty of Physical Education and Sports Sciences because of its link to the human body and the changes that occur to the body during the practice of any sports or physical activity. It is very necessary to know what happens during exercise to the human body and what are the changes associated with any activity in my blood

Due to the tremendous scientific progress in the field of physical education and sports sciences in the world, the need for the course of this important science, which is concerned with the changes associated with sports activity. There have been many researches and studies in this science, which have shown that the science of sports physiology is a vital science and is associated with several sciences, so it must be studied, understood and paid attention to it ever.

This science is also considered one of the important courses in the Department of Rehabilitation and Physical Therapy, because it is related to the rest of the sciences associated with it, such as traumatology, anatomy, biomechanics and biochemistry.

The course works to provide the student with basic knowledge and concepts about the physiology of sports in the sports field in terms of: its concept - importance - physiological and health effects and providing the student with the skill of tests and measurement and knowledge of laboratory devices and tools as well as dealing with the work of these laboratory tests within the laboratories and how to work those physiological tests. Also, qualifying the student to know the work of the muscles and organs of the body correctly and to know the impact of sports activity on those muscles and vital organs of the human body, as well as to overcome the obstacles facing the athlete in his daily life.

Intended learning outcomes

The physiology course aims to prepare qualified cadres of physiotherapists and medical escorts for sports clubs qualified to work in various fields of rehabilitation and qualify them to return to their full motor and functional capacity through various means of rehabilitation through accurate diagnosis and then provide the best appropriate treatment methods.

Methods of assessments

The course is presented to the student through theoretical and practical lectures and panel discussions with brainstorming, in addition to field visits to the college laboratory to increase the understanding and scientific achievement of students.
