BIOG 2020 - Human Development and Structure (OPHLS-AG) Fall. 3 credits. Student option grading.
Prerequisite: BIOG 1101 . Offered in Doha, Qatar at Weill Cornell Medical College.
C. McVeigh.
This course will use a systems approach to study human structure, embedding medical terminology throughout. Each system will be examined in terms of early development, histology, functional anatomy, and evolutionary history. It will serve as a “sister course” to Physiology 1, and Physiology 2 so will be closely coordinated with them. Tutorials will be used to emphasize these connections and to introduce pathology. Systems covered will include: nervous system, endocrine system, integumentary system, skeletal system, muscular system, respiratory system, circulatory system, digestive system, reproductive system, and urinary system.
Outcome 1: Students will be able to demonstrate a basic understanding of the development and structure of the different organ systems covered by this module.
Outcome 2: Students will be able to demonstrate a basic understanding of histology, and be able to identify major tissue types.
Outcome 3: Students will be able to explain the role of organ systems in the maintenance of health.
Outcome 4: Students will be able to communicate these concepts clearly using the correct terminology, and express opinions and knowledge of the subject with clarity.
