An understanding of human biology is vital to managing health care. Health care practitioners are expected to know individual body parts and how systems work in order to have a holistic view of the patient and their physiological profile.
This course focuses on the basic structures associated with the maintenance of homeostasis and addresses concepts associated with movement and oxygenation. Build your knowledge in basic chemistry, anatomy, cells and tissues and explore how the cardiovascular, respiratory, nervous and endocrine systems interact with each other.
UniSA Online’s 10-week short courses give you the flexibility to upskill in a certain area, stay current with developments in your field, diversify your knowledge, or even explore a new direction in your career – without having to commit to the time and cost of a full university degree.
