Student Learning Outcomes
Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
1. identify structures of the integumentary system, skeletal system, muscular system, and nervous systems of the human body on provided models and on previously dissected cadavers.
2. visually identify tissues (epithelial, muscular, neural, and connective) based on histology slides.
3. learn origins and insertions of major muscles.
4. dissect structures of the integumentary system, skeletal system, muscular system, and nervous systems from preserved mammalian specimens (cats, pigs, cows, etc.).
5. describe the anatomical structures of aforementioned body systems on weekly lab quizzes and three major lab practicals.
