COURSES TAUGHT

HLTH 128 - Human Anatomy and Physiology I
Designed to introduce the student to the study of the structure and function of the human body.  It is the first in a two course sequence and students will explore the skeletal, muscular, articular,  and nervous systems and the sense organs of the human body.  It serves as the foundation course for further study in health science, sports medicine, biomechanics, physiology, exercise physiology, and physical education.

HLTH 129 - Human Anatomy and Physiology I Laboratory
A laboratory experience that will introduce the student to an in-depth study of the skeletal, muscular, articular, and nervous systems and the sense organs of the human body.  Disarticulated models, computer programs and organ models will be used to aid student comprehension.  It serves as the foundation course for further study in health science, sports medicine, biomechanics, physiology, and exercise physiology.

HLTH 151- Human Anatomy
Course content provides the student with an introduction to gross anatomy with emphasis on tissues and the skeletal, muscular and nervous systems.  It serves as the foundation course for further study in health science, sports medicine, biomechanics, physiology, exercise physiology, and physical education.

HLTH 305- Introduction to Biomechanics
Increases the health science major's understanding of human movement and provides the foundation for critical analysis of physical activity and exercise. The approach includes the use of both quantitative and qualitative problems and applications that are designed to illustrate biomechanical principles.  Prerequisite:  HLTH151 or permission of instructor.

HLTH 360- Athletic Training Procedures
This course will introduce the student to procedures utilized in the practice of athletic training. 
Prerequisites: Students accepted into the Athletic Training Education Program

HLTH 451- Advanced Human Anatomy
A study of the gross anatomical relationships between major structures, organs, vessels and nerves.  Human cadaver observation and dissection of all major systems of the body will be conducted by students and included in the laboratory sessions.
