body and its healthy functioning, to understand
the chemical background for the functions of
the human body, and to give the skills needed
to be able to recognize illness.

Learning outcomes

At the end of the course, the student is
expected to be able to:

-describe the structure of the human body and
name the organs in Swedish and in scientific

the sense organs.

-be aware of the mechanisms for the development
of disease

-know and understand the chemical processes
taking place in the human body that are
relevant to his/her profession
