Course Objective

The goal of the Human Physiology major is to help students understand the function of individual human organ systems, appreciate the interdependence of organ system function and relate homeostatic regulation to health and disease in the human body. This knowledge is gained by pursuing systematic studies of cells, tissues, organs and animals

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   History and Basic Physiological principles.
2   Cell organelles and membranes, and material transportation across the cell membrane.
3   Membran and action potential, propagation of action potential synaptic transmission.
4   Physiology and pathophysiology of skeletal and smooth muscles.
5   Physiology and pathophysiology of central nervous system.
6   Physiology and pathophysiology of pheripheral nervous system.
7   Physiology and pathophysiology of circulatory system.
8   Physiology and pathophysiology of blood.
9   Physiology and pathophysiology of immun system.
