The International Institute for Sport and Human Performance (IISHP) is an extension of the Department of Human Physiology in the College of Arts and Sciences at the University of Oregon.
One of the institute's major components is Kinesiology Publications (formerly Microform Publications of Human Movement Studies), a collection of theses and dissertations from the areas of exercise and sports sciences, health, physical education, and dance reaching back to 1947.
The Institute provides workshops, continuing education opportunities, and American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM) certifications in the areas of exercise science and sports medicine as well as promotes public events advocating physical activity and healthy life styles. It also sponsors the Athletic Training Service Center, which provides sport injury treatment to individuals who sustain injuries related to exercise activity.
