Teaching Methods The course of Human Anatomy is organized in lectures (30 hours). Power point presentations and anatomical models are used.
Evaluation methods Verification of learning:
The exam consists of a written exam with 2 open-ended questions covering all the treated topics Unsuccessful answers are worth 0 points. The duration of the exam is 60 minutes. To pass the exam the candidate must acquire a minimum score of 18 out of 30. If the test is insufficient (score is less than 18) the test must be repeated. The recording of the final grade results from the weighted average of the marks obtained in the exams related of the courses.
