Health Science

This course primarily studies the anatomy of the human body with an introduction to function. It is intended for those planning a career in the health sciences. Topics include basic cell structure, organization of tissues, organs and systems, and detailed gross anatomy of each of the major organ systems. Laboratories center on identification of structures and their parts.

This course primarily studies the physiology of the human body. It is intended for those planning a career in the health sciences. Topics include basic cell function, the mechanisms of function for each of the organ systems and their integrated function within the organism. Homeostatic mechanisms are systems stressed. Laboratories utilize computer simulations as well as hands on, minimally invasive physiologic activities.
