ANAT SC 1103 - Human Anatomy and Physiology IB

Are you studying in health and medical sciences, preparing for a health-related career, or simply keen to learn more about how our amazing bodies function in both health and disease? Human Anatomy and Physiology provides students with an introduction to the anatomical structures and physiological functions of the human body. Students will investigate the relationships between normal structure and function in human cells, tissues and organs. In Human Anatomy and Physiology IB, coverage of organ systems builds upon content presented in Human Anatomy and Physiology IA. Course content is divided into six modules: Cardiovascular System; Respiratory System; Digestive System and Metabolism; Urinary System; Infection and Immunity; and Ageing. As well as introducing students to content, emphasis is placed on developing skills in research, critical analysis and communication of scientific information relevant to the study of humans.
