Course Objective

The objective of this course is to provide students of veterinary laboratory and health technician programmes with fundamental knowledge of the macroscopic anatomy of domestic animals. The course aims to enable students to understand the systematic organisation of the animal body, the functions of organs, and their interrelationships. Accordingly, students will acquire the competence to effectively apply anatomical knowledge required in clinical, laboratory, and research settings within the field of veterinary laboratory and health sciences.

Learning Outcomes of the Course Unit

1   Demonstrate fundamental knowledge of the macroscopic anatomy of domestic animals.
2   Identify the systematic organisation of the animal body and describe the structure function relationships of organs.
3   Recognise the interrelationships between anatomical structures within different body systems.
4   Apply anatomical knowledge in the interpretation of clinical and laboratory findings.
5   Utilise anatomical concepts as a basis for further studies in veterinary sciences and related research.
