The first in a sequence of two foundational courses in the structure and function of the human body. This course is required by allied health profession majors (Physical Therapy, Nursing, Occupational Therapy); it is offered every spring semester and during each summer session. A systems level approach is used to study general histology, and integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, and endocrine systems. The laboratory component of the course (BIO 150L) is a co-requisite that reinforces the principles learned in lecture (BIO 150) with hands-on experiences in human physiology using state-of-the-art digital instrumentation, computer simulations, and animal/human dissection. Note: The on-campus version of this course is only available to allied health program students (Physical Therapy, Nursing, Occupational Therapy).
