ASHS 6100 - Human Anatomy I

4 credit hours

This course is designed to enhance health professions students’ knowledge and application of human anatomy, specifically as its structure relates to function of all systems and regions. It is also intended to build on foundational human anatomy using prosected human donors, imaging, and technology to advance students’ ability to recognize anatomical relationships and their relevance in clinical practice and patient care. Following this course, students should be able toto understand the conceptual and functional design of the human body (specifically, anatomy of the nervous and circulatory systems, upper extremity, back, and trunk) and apply their knowledge to their clinical practice, allowing them to think critically and ultimately improve patient care.
