Course title
Honors Anatomy & PhysiologyPre-requisite
BiologyCourse description
This rigorous lab-oriented course designed to help understand the anatomic and physiological basis of life. It provides an in-depth investigation of the body systems; their structure and function under normal circumstances as well as during times of illness; injury or disease. Students will integrate relevant information and skills to†explore careers in the medical and healthcare fields.† This course will include dissection.†
Over 25% of the course will include wetlabs.††
