BIOB1220 Anatomy and Physiology Course description

The course will mainly consist of lectures and supervisory sessions. Students work individually on exercises or reading assignments given throughout the course. In addition, students will work in groups of two on a project involving IoT. In rare cases, the size of the group may be adjusted, depending on the judgement of the course responsible. A project report documenting the project and its results will be handed in at the end of the course.

The course will provide background and preparatory reading materials. Reading assignments and media will be provided on the electronic learning platform.

The following coursework must be approved before the student can take the exam:

Two compulsory assignments:

• One project proposal, outlining the rationale and plan for the project. Between 500 and 1000 words.
• One project report, documenting the project and its results. Between 2500 and 5000 words.

The deadlines for submitting the compulsory assignments and other details are stipulated in the teaching plan made available at the start of the semester.

Individual oral examination (20 minutes).
