Learning outcomes
The student will accomplish the following competencies upon successful completion of the course in Human Anatomy:
1. The student will develop a functional knowledge of the basic nomenclature and conventions used to study human anatomy, review the fundamentals of cell biology and selected tissues of the body.
2. The student will be able display knowledge of the relative positions and functions of the major body organs as well as their general anatomical locations for the body systems covered in Human Anatomy.

Teaching methods
Lectures with extensive use of images and videos, such as to facilitate the acquisition of fundamental anatomical basis through the stimulation of visual memory. The course is divided into a series of lectures which are accompanied by practical exercises.
Assessment methods
The final verification consists of an oral exam in which the student must demonstrate acquired knowledge of systematic and topographical anatomy of the various organs.
The test is oral and will be based on a series of questions that will tend to ascertain the student's knowledge on the topics covered in class.
The final exam aims to evaluate the achievement of the educational objectives:
- To know the macroscopic and microscopic anatomy of the apparatuses and systems of the human body.
The final mark of the Integrated Course of Morphological Sciences is defined, by means of an oral exam, on the average of the marks reported in three specific questions on topics related to the main objectives of the Course.
Teaching tools
Lecture using computer presentations and videos, laboratory dissection, models and computer programs
