  • IPHY 1600 - Basic Human Anatomy & Physiology
    Primary Instructor - Fall 2024
    Focuses on basic knowledge of human body structures and functions. Topics include an orientation to the human body, basic chemistry and cell structure, the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic, immune, respiratory, digestive, urinary, and reproductive systems. Open to all majors and exploratory students. Integrative Physiology (IPHY) majors should take IPHY 3410 and 3430 to fulfill the anatomy and physiology degree requirements.
  • IPHY 3410 - Human Anatomy
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2018 / Fall 2018 / Spring 2019 / Fall 2019 / Spring 2020 / Fall 2021 / Fall 2022 / Fall 2023
    Explores the cells, tissues, and organs that compose the different anatomical systems including integumentary, skeletal, muscular, digestive, respiratory, cardiovascular, lymphatic, nervous, urinary and reproductive. All registration restrictions will be strictly enforced by the department. Recommended prerequisite: EBIO 1220.
  • IPHY 3415 - Human Anatomy Laboratory
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2018 / Spring 2019 / Spring 2020 / Fall 2021 / Fall 2022 / Fall 2023 / Fall 2024
    Introduces structures of the human anatomical systems using human cadavers and animal tissue. This laboratory is meant to complement IPHY 3410. Degree credit not granted for this course and IPHY 3417.
  • IPHY 3417 - Virtual Human Anatomy Laboratory
    Teaching Assistant - Spring 2021
    Introduces structures of the human anatomical systems using a virtual interactive anatomy program. This laboratory is meant to complement IPHY 3410. As an online course, this lab may not fulfill pre-requisites for post-baccalaureate, graduate, or other allied health programs. Please consult with your Biology advisor before enrollment. Same as IPHY 3415.
  • IPHY 3430 - Human Physiology
    Primary Instructor - Fall 2020 / Spring 2021 / Spring 2022 / Spring 2023 / Spring 2024
    Introduces the physiology of the endocrine, nervous, muscular, cardiovascular, respiratory, urinary, digestive, reproductive and immune systems. Each system will be integrated into the larger contexts of homeostasis and adaptation during pathology and challenges. Students must enroll in lecture and recitation sections. Degree credit not granted for this course and IPHY 3470. Recommended prerequisite: IPHY 3415.
  • IPHY 4930 - Internship
    Primary Instructor - Spring 2018 / Fall 2018 / Spring 2019 / Fall 2019 / Spring 2020 / Fall 2021 / Spring 2022 / Fall 2022 / Spring 2023 / Fall 2023 / Spring 2024 / Fall 2024
    Offers upper-division students practical experience in laboratory, clinical, and field settings with direct supervision Students can earn 1 credit for every 45 hours of intern work. Consult with departmental internship coordinator for approval. May be repeated up to 6 total credit hours. Department enforced prerequisite: Cumulative GPA of 2.0 and completion of two upper-division IPHY courses.
