OBJECTIVES AND CONTENTS

Objectives of the Course Unit: “The aim is to provide students with fundamental knowledge of the structural and functional features of the human body; to teach the structure and functions of cells, tissues, organs, and systems; to help students understand the anatomical organization and interrelationships of the major body systems (skeletal, muscular, circulatory, respiratory, digestive, nervous, endocrine, excretory, and urogenital systems); and thus to establish a foundational anatomy knowledge that students can apply in their professional practice.
Contents of the Course Unit: Within the course, the definition and basic concepts of anatomy are covered. The types of cells and tissues, along with their structures and functions, are studied.

KEY LEARNING OUTCOMES OF THE COURSE UNIT (On successful completion of this course unit, students/learners will or will be able to)
