At the end of course, students should have acquired a three-dimensional representation of the human body, including its surface characteristics and internal organization. The approach will be predominantly systematic, based on the study of the individual systems into which the human body can be divided, and therefore of the organs and viscera that constitute them, along with their shapes. At the same time, students will be provided with the basic notions for a topographical study of human anatomy, focusing on the major regions of the body to better assess the relationships between organs, viscera, and connective tissue in each region. Organs and viscera will be considered in terms of their macroscopic and microscopic structural characteristics, as they appear after section and radiological examination, also supported by the use of anatomical models and microscopic anatomy. The acquired knowledge will finally be integrated with elements of functional anatomy.
Course Prerequisites
Completion of the Additional Educational Offer (OFA) as indicated. Acquisition of basic Biology and Histology skills. A minimum attendance of 70% is required; no prerequisites are required.
Teaching Methods
Classical lessons stimulating interactivity through classroom discussions of the topics.
Assessment Methods
Midterm multiple-choice tests consisting of 30 questions on Human Anatomy and an oral exam. A passing grade is required if students answer at least 60% of the questions. The grade is calculated by multiplying the number of correct answers for each module and calculating the weighted average. Questions are prepared by the teacher during the relevant academic year.

Contents
The module, starting from the Introduction to the study of Anatomy, addresses the study of the structures of the systems and apparatuses that make up the human body, with attention to the topographical location and the relationships that the organs that comprise it have with each other and with the surrounding structures, mentioning their functions.
