SYKP1110 Anatomy, Physiology and Biochemistry Course description

Supervised individual written exam.

• Three hours.

None.

After completing the course, the student is expected to have achieved the following learning outcomes defined in terms of knowledge, skills, and general competence:

Knowledge

The student can

• name anatomical structures and organs in the human body
• describe where organs are located in relation to each other
• describe anatomical structure in terms of
  • macroanatomical: organs and organ systems
  • microanatomical: cells and tissues
• describe the function of different organs and organ systems in the body
• describe normal physiology in the various organs and organ systems
• describe regulation mechanisms and homoeostasis in a healthy body
• distinguish between the structure and characteristics of different types of microorganisms
• describe how different microorganisms influence health and disease
• can describe preventive measures to avoid antibiotic resistance

Skills

The student

• can disseminate basic knowledge of human anatomy and organ systems and of physiological and biochemical processes
• can convey knowledge about biochemical processes

General competence

The student

• recognises the importance of knowledge of the topic for practising professional nursing

A more detailed description of the academic depth and level of the different topics is given in the specification of content set out in a document posted on OsloMet's digital learning platform at the start of the programme.

Detailed learning outcomes and course content are prepared annually by NOKUT.

All answers are assessed by two examiners.

An external examiner is used regularly, at a minimum for every third ordinary examination. If selecting answers for external evaluation, a minimum of 10 percent of the answers shall be included, with no fewer than 10 answers.
