A one semester general introduction to the human body stressing the integration of structure and function within each of the organ systems.
Laboratory supplements the lecture material.
Some dissection of preserved animal specimen material is included. The course does not satisfy the one year anatomy and physiology course requirements of many nursing or other health related programs. Coordinated lecture and laboratory experiences are the primary modes of instruction. The lecture portion of the course will emphasize physiology and the laboratory will concentrate on anatomy. The two are in fact inseparable and their interdependence will be stressed.
