The laboratory provides hands on training that will link the concepts learned in the classroom into physical experiences. The experiences selected focus on careers in the health sciences. This course encourages student learning of body structure to better understand body function. The study of structure will include coverage of molecules to bones and tissues of the human body. This course will provide the foundation that will be used throughout your career.
