Competency aims
The aim of the course is to create an understanding of the structure of the human body and its healthy functioning, the chemical/physical background, and to give the skills needed to be able to recognise 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 terms
-understand and shortly describe the functions of the different organ systems; the musculoskeletal system, the circulatory system, the respiratory system, the digestive system, the urinary system, the reproductive system, the endocrine organs, the nervous system, and the sense organs.
-be aware of the mechanisms for the development of disease
Course contents
The structure and function of all organs of the human body and the development of illness.
