Learner Outcomes:
Upon successful completion of this course, the student will be able to:

NOTE: This course is one of a two quarter sequence. Each course covers a different set of human organ systems, with similar learner outcomes.

  • Identify and analyze detailed anatomical structures associated with the major human organ systems (or a suitable mammalian surrogate such as cats, etc. will be used to dissect /identify these structures.
  • Describe the detailed functioning (physiology) of all major organ system of the body.
  • Integrate the study of anatomy and physiology to gain a fuller understanding of human form and function.
  • Demonstrate the dissection and laboratory skills necessary for the examination and study of the major human organ systems.
  • Relate physical structure to biological function across all levels of organization (from cellular to organismal levels).
