Base Knowledge
The student should have knowledge on the principals of general and human biology.
Teaching Methodologies
The theoretical classes aim to address in detail the syllabus. Na actively expository methodology will be
used,motivating for the direct intervention of the students, and favouring an abundant iconography, instead of the classical theoretical teaching.
On theoretical-practical component, students will be encouraged to do practical work, assisted
by multimedia, with explanations and demonstrations on anatomical models. Assisting to autopsies will also be encouraged.
Learning Results
The student must acquire knowledge on:
– Descriptive and topographic anatomy in different anatomical planes.
– Description and location of anatomical structures according to the international anatomical nomina.
The student should acquire skills and competences of:
– Identifying and describing anatomical structures, considering normal anatomy and its variants.
– Describing anatomical structures for different systems.
– Establishing anatomical spatial correlations.
– Correlating anatomical structures with their function, for further application in a clinical context.
