In this specialization, you will receive an introduction to human anatomy and physiology! Together, we will explore foundational concepts as well as the structure (anatomy) and function (physiology) of the human body as it pertains to five major body systems: the integumentary (skin), skeletal, muscular, nervous, and endocrine (hormone) systems.
These courses will utilize a free, open-source text (https://openstax.org/details/books/anatomy-and-physiology-2e)with supplemental activities and applications. With a unique approach to learning combining both art and science, you are sure to find enjoyment in exploring the mystery and marvel of the human body!
Applied Learning Project
In each course of this specialization, you will have the opportunities to complete an Art of Anatomy exercise, an optional peer-reviewed project, graded module quizzes, and a summative end-of-course exam to reinforce your learning while assessing your new skills.
