BIOL 430 — Gross Anatomy and Human Movement
This course explores human gross anatomy, and examines human movement through the study of functional anatomy, musculoskeletal relationships and body systems integration. Students will explore how various body systems work together to create and control movement. Using virtual cadaver technology, students will study detailed anatomical structures and their role in movement production, with emphasis on muscle function, joint actions, and neurological control. Laboratory sessions combine movement analysis with virtual dissection to enhance understanding of human anatomy and system relationships. Students will also choose a topic of their choice to then develop a presentation for the course final.
