Advance your understanding of the healthy human body and the way it interacts with the environment. This course builds on your knowledge gained in Foundation of Human Biology 1 in homeostasis, and focuses on the regulation and integration of body systems (immune, digestive, nervous, urinary and reproductive systems, and nutrition), and on continuity (including genetics, reproductive and cell biology, and physiological development across the lifespan).  

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.  

Delivered 100% online, you’ll be able to study where and when it suits you. Access online academic and student support seven days a week, fit study around work and life commitments, view learning resources 24/7, and log in to the interactive online environment anywhere, any time and on any device. 

This is a first-year course from UniSA Online’s Bachelor of Health Sciences (Nutrition and Exercise) degree. Please note: you are responsible for completing any relevant prerequisite courses before enrolling in this course.

Should your course have an exam it will be scheduled for Australian Central Standard Time or Australian Central Daylight Time, depending on the time of the year.
