BIO 303 : Human Physiology

This course will explore the fascinating workings of the human body in both form and function. We will take a tour of the major organ systems and learn about how they work together to maintain homeostasis. This tour will include the respiratory system, circulatory system, digestive system, including energy and metabolism, immune system, urinary system, reproductive system, and finally, how these systems communicate with one another via the endocrine system and nervous system. This course will use a combination of lectures, class discussions, and group activities that involve case studies, physiology experiments, and dissections. This course will be useful for those who are planning on pursuing a career in the health sciences.
