    Description
    This is an introductory course in human physiology, organized around body systems and the theme of homeostasis. The course is designed for the beginning student preparing for these health-related fields: vocational nursing, radiologic technology; or those with a general interest in the function of the human body. This course will minimize bio-chemical and quantitative details taught in a general physiology course (e.g., PHYSIO 1), focusing on the fundamental concepts of physiology. (Not intended for nursing (RN), dental hygiene, or physical therapy majors.)
