Learning Outcomes

With successful completion of this course, you will be able to:

Learn and use standard anatomical terms and concepts for the purpose of identification, effective communication and critical reading of relevant anatomical literature.
Comprehend and analyze the gross (macroscopic) and histology (microscopic) anatomy of the tissues and organs that make up the human body.
Develop and utilize a systematic logical thinking process to help you recognize anatomical structures and predict the physiological functions of body systems.
Describe the integrated relationship between histology and gross anatomy with respect to structure and function, and be able to extend that knowledge to various aspects of development and function.
Demonstrate ability to collaborate and work effectively and respectfully with diverse teams.
