Fall 2024 (On-Campus)

Year 2

Available

On-Campus Course

Anatomy 215 is designed as a core course in Anatomy for Students in the Life Sciences Subject of Specialization degree program. The emphasis of this course deals with the general principles of human structure and function as appreciated through a survey of the morphological sciences, including: microscopic and gross anatomy of the nervous system, musculo-skeletal system, and cardiovascular system. This is a half-course offered in the fall term annually.

NOTE Priority will be given to students registered in a LISC Specialization Plan.

Course Objectives

The lecture and laboratory exercises provide concepts and principles that contribute to a basic understanding of the structure and function of the human body. It is anticipated that the goal of the student, through assimilation of the materials of this course, will be able to demonstrate a comprehensive knowledge of the course material and thereby, attain a basic knowledge of human morphology.

To learn and use standard anatomical terms and concepts for the purpose of identification, communication and critical reading of relevant anatomical (medical) literature.
To understand the gross (macroscopic) and histology (microscopic) anatomy (and some relevant function) of the tissues and organs that make up the human body.
To develop and utilize a systematic logical thinking process to help you work through understanding the structure of the human body.
To understand the inseparable relationship between histology and gross anatomy with respect to structure and function, and be able to apply that understanding.
