The group of students from the Master in High Performance Sport UCAM modality in English this week has collaborated with Professor Kevin McQuade, of Washington School of Medicine, in a study on biomechanics which aims to improve performance or avoid injury from the position taken by users on the machines of gyms.
Dr. McQuade has also taught some classes in this postgraduate Research Center for High Performance Catholic University of Murcia and in the UCAM Sports Center.

The Master in high Performance Sport is one of the graduate degrees that UCAM has begun training in English for this course.
"We have students from Greece, Armenia, Burkina Faso, Egypt, Italy, Ireland, Portugal and Albania, in addition to four Spaniards," says Alcaraz.
"It is a very enriching experience, for an international environment is created in the Campus."
