Program Summary
Human Physiology as a course involves the comprehensive study of the functions and mechanisms of the human body. It explores how the body’s various systems work individually and together to maintain homeostasis and support life. The course typically covers the functioning of the nervous, muscular, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, renal, endocrine, and reproductive systems. Students learn about cellular and molecular processes, organ functions, and system interactions. Emphasis is placed on understanding normal physiological processes as a foundation for recognizing pathophysiological changes in disease. The course combines theoretical knowledge with practical applications through lab work, experiments, and case studies, helping students develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills relevant to medical and health sciences.
