Anatomy Specialization

In this Specialization you will explore human anatomy using a systems approach, and a vast library of multimedia materials, so you may understand the features of different organ systems in relation to the human body’s form and function.
This Specialization covers the following organ systems:
Integumentary System
Musculoskeletal System
Cardiovascular System
Respiratory System
Urinary System
Nervous System
Gastrointestinal System
Reproductive System
Endocrine System
This Specialization takes advantage of a highly visual multimedia library of accurate anatomical models and materials to help you better understand the topics.
WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
- Understand the integumentary system anatomy and function
- Understand the skeletal system anatomy and function
- Learn joint classifications, function, and clinical correlations
- Learn skeletal muscle anatomy and function
