The student has a right to raise the grade one time.

Assessment methods and criteria

Evaluation of the students performance is done with written exam. Grades are 0-5, 0 meaning disqualification and 5 meaning excellent knowledge.
Aims to be achieved:
The student knows the structures and functions of the human body and can understands the human being as a physical functional enterity.
The student knows the essential terms of anatomy and physiology.
The student can apply the above mentioned knowledge both in studies and in working life.
The student learns how to exploit different sources in data acquisition both independently and with fellow students.
The student learns to use effectively the time spent on independent studying.

Assessment scale

0-5

Teaching methods

Classroom lectures (some of the lectures will be via Zoom), independent studying and working in small groups.
