EHS faculty earn Student Technology Fee awards to enhance student learning and research
Six faculty members in Miami’s Department of Kinesiology, Nutrition, and Health received FY26 Student Technology Fee awards totaling more than $55,000 to expand opportunities for hands-on learning and applied research. Funded projects include a portable blood testing system for exercise physiology labs (Alex Claiborne), a body composition analyzer for nutrition assessment (Lydia Ballenger), shortwave diathermy equipment for athletic training coursework (Emily Davie), a dislocation trainer for emergency orthopedic simulations (Mary Brooks), a multi-channel data integration system to support physiology education and experiential learning (Jon Stavres), and viscometers to advance food rheology research and instruction (Bryn Beeder). Together, these projects will strengthen technology-enhanced learning and prepare students for professional practice.
