Handbook

Introduction to Anatomy and Physiology I explores basic concepts of both structure and function of the human body developed and delivered as an integrated approach. Students cover basic principles of anatomy and physiology and study in further detail six of the eleven systems of the body (skeletal, joint, muscular, nervous, cardiovascular and respiratory). Teaching and learning will take place in lectures, laboratory and tutorial settings using state of the art resources and online support. Introduction to Anatomy and Physiology I provides an exciting insight into the human body and forms an excellent basis to more advanced topics in anatomy/physiology. Students will be exposed to human cadaveric specimens during teaching, learning and assessments in this subject. Students with a medical history of immunosuppression, who are pregnant or believe that a relative or family friend has donated their remains to the laboratory, need to directly contact the subject co-ordinator regarding subject enrolment advice.
