Biology

Description:

This course is intended for students who desire to pursue medical, dental, pharmacy, and other health professional degrees and graduate degrees in anatomy. This course presents a systemic approach to the study of the human body. Lecture presentation begins with an introduction of anatomical terminology and an overview of cellular processes and tissue classification. Students then learn the gross and microscopic anatomy of the following systems: integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive, Case studies will be used so that students can solve complex medical problems in anatomy. The laboratory component of the course generally parallels and reinforces lecture concepts through the use of preserved specimens, models, histological slides, skeletal materials, and virtual cadaver demonstration. Students will also gain practical experience in the simulation lab in the nursing department. The lecture and lab will be integrated in two 3-hour time blocks each week.
