Human Traumatic Injuries Accident Reconstructionists and Biomechanical Engineers are trained to evaluate the forces involved in motor vehicle crashes. Doctors are trained to diagnose and treat the injuries. HBTI blends the two disciplines to explain how injuries happen, what injuries occurred, and why this particular patient was (or was not) injured using the facts available from both the injured human, the force vectors, and using only established and reliable science. |
HBTI Students, Associates, and Fellows A student of the Institute may successfully complete a single module on a specific subject or mechanism of injury. Those students will be equipped to understand thoroughly and explain that mechanism of injury. Only students who have passed the examination may state that they have "passed:" that module. Students who take the module but never take or pass the examination may state they have "completed" the module. Students may complete as many or few modules as needed for the work they are involved in, thus making HBTI flexible, efficient, and effective. |
