Skills you'll gain

Specialization - 3 course series

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.

This course provides a strong foundation upon which the future system-based courses in the specialization will build!

The second course begins the systems-based approach to human anatomy and physiology at the organ, organ system, and organism level. Three major body systems related to support and movement will be explored in detail: the skeletal and muscular systems. Course material will cover both the structure (anatomy) and function (physiology) of each system with direct application to human development and disease.

This course continues the systems-based approach to human anatomy and physiology at the organ, organ system, and organism level. Two major body systems related to regulation and integration of information will be explored in detail: the nervous and endocrine systems. Course material will cover both the structure (anatomy) and function (physiology) of each system with direct application to human development and disease.
