Qualification Certificate
Human Anatomy. This course is essential study for an in-depth understanding of human anatomy. Lessons include surface anatomy, regional and systemic anatomy and radiographic anatomy and cytology.
This course assumes a basic understanding of anatomy, and is an ideal follow on from Human Anatomy and Physiology BSC101.
Course Aims:
- Describe and understand the microscopic anatomical features of human cells
- Review basic structure and form markings of the body and be able to name them.
- Describe the significant systems and the structure of those systems of the body.
- Integumentary, Nervous, Cardiovascular and Renal Systems.
- Describe the significant systems and the structure of those systems of the body.
- Endocrine, Immune and Reproductive Systems.
- Describe the significant structures in specific compartments or parts of the body – body cavities.
- Investigate the anatomy of the extremities – the arms and legs. This includes the bone, musculature and nervous tissue of the regions.
- Describe the study of the structure of the body and the application of various forms of medical imaging.

Course Tutor(s)
Our science courses are taught by a range of different tutors depending on the area of expertise. We have specialised tutors in environmental science, animal (veterinary) science, human nutrition and health science and so on. At enrollment you will be assigned your tutor who is an expert in that field. You will receive a welcome email from them within 1 - 2 days of enrollment so you will be able to contact them as soon as you need to.
Some subjects such as biochemistry are an integral part of many sciences including animal (veterinary science), human health science and many parts of environmental science. We have many experienced tutors who are qualified to teach introductory biochemistry. Depending upon your particular interest in biochemistry we will assign a tutor in the appropriate field at enrollment.
