Course Objectives:

The broad principles of human physiology will be the main focus, then the class will progress to specific physiological mechanisms in individual systems and organs.

Course Content:

a) Theoretical Part:

Human physiology is a discipline which focus on the mechanical, physical, and biochemical function of humans. Human physiology can divided in three main categories as cell physiology, special physiology (physiology of specific organs) and systemic physiology. We will use all these approach in this class.

b) Laboratory Practice:

Course Methodology:

1: Lecture, 2: Question-Answer, 3: Discussion, 4: Presentation, 5:Simulation, 6: Video, 7: Applications, 8:Case Study

Course Evaluation Methods:

A:Written exam, B: multiple chose , C:Filing the blank D:False and troth, E: Oral Exam F: Portfolio, G: Contribution of course activities H:Homework
