Teaching Methods Theoretical lessons (36 hours) provided by the teacher by means of Power Point presentations and instructional videos.
Practical laboratory activity exercitations (3 of 2 hours each) with anatomical models (for macroscopic anatomy) and observation of slides of biological samples (for microscopic anatomy).

Evaluation methods Verification of learning:
Oral exam with at least three questions on different topics.
Having previously passed the Animal Biology exam is mandatory.
The final grade will be the mean between the Animal Biology and Human Anatomy grades. It is necessary to have a minimum of 18/30 in both the tests to pass the final exam.
Contacts/More Information -Sixty hours of individual tutorship are available and need to be decided with the teacher.
-Minimum number of class attendance hours: 70% of theoretical lessons and at least 2 of the 3 practical laboratory activities.
- The teacher consulting hours are: tue-wed-thur 11am-1pm. At any other time by prior appointment.
