Tavoitteet

Learning Outcomes:
Anatomy and physiology:
The student is able to
- name and locate the structures of different organ systems in the human body.
- understand the structure, function, regulation and underlying factors of the human body.
- explain the basic functions of the major organs and organ systems.
- explain the principles of regulation of the different organ systems.
- define and use terms and concepts related to anatomy and physiology.
- explain the structure and function of organs and organ systems and their role in the functioning of the human body.

Microbiology and pathology:
The student
- is able to form an understanding of the diagnosis, birth, effects, prevention and treatment of the most common illnesses, and the grading of medical treatment.
- is able to describe the mechanisms of infectious diseases, the body's defense system and the prevention of infectious diseases by getting acquainted with microbes, normal human flora, ways of infecting infectious diseases and microbes that cause infectious diseases.
