OBJECTIVES AND CONTENTS

Objectives of the Course Unit: The aim of this course is to teach students the anatomical features of the cells, tissues, organs, and systems that make up the normal structure of the human body, to enable them to understand the structural relationships between organs and systems, and to equip them with the ability to use anatomical knowledge correctly and safely in professional practice.
Contents of the Course Unit: The course content includes an introduction to anatomy and basic concepts, anatomical planes and directional terms of the human body, and the anatomical structure of the skeletal system, muscular system, circulatory system, respiratory system, digestive system, urinary system, reproductive system, nervous system, endocrine system, and sensory organs.
