Description

Designed for first year students preparing for a career in the medical field. Topics include: introduction, structure levels and anatomical positions and cavities. This will be followed in a topical manner by the skeletal, muscular and nervous systems. The intent of this approach is to allow the student to develop a concise understanding of how each system of the body functions and interacts. The concepts covered in the lecture course are explored in greater detail in lab. Models, prepared slides and preserved specimens will all be used to supply the student with a detailed view of the anatomy of the body. Those who have not successfully completed a high school or college lab-based chemistry and biology course are recommended to take BIO 114 prior to this course. An introductory knowledge of both chemistry and biology is essential for course success.
