COURSE OBJECTIVES
This course is designed to focus on gross morphology, structure of cell, and tissues of muscular, cardiovascular, alimentary, urinary, respiratory, reproductive, endocrine system and nervous system with relationship to their physiological and pathological changes.
COURSE LEARNING OUTCOMES (CLO)
CLO: 1. Describe the anatomical terminologies required for orientation of human body structures and their relationship with other structures.
CLO: 2. Explain human anatomy at macro and microscopic levels
CLO: 3. Apply anatomical features of human body with their physiological and pathological aspects.
