Biobehavioral Exercise Science Lab
The Biobehavioral Exercise Science Lab aims to address important research questions related to human behavior and physiology. The laboratory mission is to initiate original research linked to existing research interests of faculty and graduate students working in the lab and to develop collaborations and partnerships with researchers across campus and around the world to address important and interesting ideas that address exercise-related concerns.
Counselor Education Training Labs
The Counselor Education Training Labs include a play therapy area, VR counseling tools, classrooms, and a study area for our students.
The Hough Measurement and Research Lab
The Hough Measurement and Research Lab supports USF College of Education faculty and students by providing a collaborative space for quantitative, qualitative, and mixed-methods research. Equipped with laptops and high-performance desktops, the lab serves as both a teaching environment and a hub for data-driven research.
Human Performance Lab
The Exercise Science and Kinesiology Laboratories provide fitness and body composition testing services to members of the local community. Our laboratories utilize state-of-the-art equipment for testing, which provides valid and reliable measurements. Our lab technicians have experience in testing professional, collegiate and recreational athletes, as well as regular exercise enthusiasts and beginners interested in gathering important health and fitness data.
The Learning Design + Technology Lab
The Learning Design + Technology Lab supports faculty, students, and staff in designing and studying innovative learning solutions through interdisciplinary collaboration and research. The lab focuses on addressing key educational challenges to enhance human potential and wellbeing.
Muscle Lab
The USF Muscle Laboratory was founded in 2018 when Dr. Samuel Buckner joined the faculty at the University of South Florida. The lab studies skeletal muscle adaptations to resistance exercise, with much of the research focused on muscle growth, strength, and how these adaptations are measured.
Performance and Physique Lab
The Performance and Physique Enhancement Lab is located on the USF Tampa campus. Dr. Bill Campbell is the director of the lab, which includes a Weightlifting lab and a Data Collection lab measuring resting metabolic rate, body composition, and other data.
Dr. Rosengrant's Virtual STEM Laboratory
The Virtual STEM Laboratory studies video game physics, augmented reality (AR) and virtual reality (VR).
The Sandbox
Rooted in an interdisciplinary approach, The Sandbox provides the tools, experiences, and opportunities needed to thrive in an ever-changing world. Through transformative learning and collaboration, we aim to inspire lifelong learning and make lasting impacts, locally and globally.
