• describing the structure and functioning of the musculoskeletal system
• describing the structure and functioning of the circulatory and respiratory system
• describing the structure and function of the nervous system
• describing the structure and functions of the sensory apparatus
• shedding light on the connections between movement, sense, perception and cognition in the performance of daily activities (human movement science)
• describing psychological theory and the connection between motivation and learning

General competence

The student is capable of

• teaching fellow students and lecturers about a topic related to the course
• showing respect and care for fellow students in interactions relating to examinations that include touching and intimacy

Work and teaching methods comprise lecturers, seminars, skills training and field work related to meaningful activities in different life phases.

Digital learning resources will be made available to students in advance, so that much of the time spent at the university will be used to work on assignments and group work. Students are expected to form study groups for self-study. Skills training with surface anatomy is part of the course, where the students use each other to examine the body’s structure and functions.

In order to be permitted to sit the exam, the following must have been approved:

• a minimum of 80 per cent attendance in scheduled teaching
• supervised individual, digital multiple-choice test in anatomy, physiology and psychology, up to one hour.

If the test is not approved, it must be retaken. The students have a right to two attempts to pass the coursework requirement before the ordinary exam, and one further attempt before a resit/rescheduled exam.

Individual oral exam, up to 30 minutes.
