UE's Learning outcomes

The course of Human Biology will tend to supply basics in the field of Diversity of Life, Biochemistry, Evolution, Cytology and Genetic. The students will build the frame of knowledge in biology  to understanding more specialized courses which they will encompass in the future (like histology, physiology; anatomy;). In a more general view, the main objectives of this course are to develop observation and analytical skills, to learn a scientific working method and to be able to synthetize some information for applying their logic in a wide range of contexts.
