This is a General Education course in which you will gain a deeper understanding of the mechanisms by which our cells/organs/bodies are able to function. Furthermore, you will also study the ways in which the human body can become dysfunctional. Finally, you will participate (hands-on) in an original research project studying the physiologic effects of exercise in an elderly population. 

Along the way, you will further develop your skills of memorization (e.g. anatomical names and facts), analysis (hands-on measurement of physiological phenomena, statistical analysis of your data, interpreting experimental findings), synthesis (write-up results of library research, describe physiological phenomena during exams and in papers) and evaluation (critique, defend, judge, support scientific papers).
