Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

• Acquire, understand and use knowledge in the fields of biology and other fields
• Demonstrate an understanding of the general principles of life to understand questions and solve situations related to biology
• Synthesise and summarise, in a critical way, information from scientific literature in different forms (textual, numerical, verbal and graphic)
• Solve issues relevant to biology
• Have developed practical skills in the various fields of biology through practical sessions in the laboratory and in the field, during which they have worked individually or in groups
• Make accurate observations in the context of activities in the field and in the laboratory
• Grasp and use the usual methods the conservation of live materials
• Analyse and interpret, in an appropriate way, biological data collected in natura, through dissection or based on an experimental protocol in the laboratory
• Apply a scientific approach and critical thinking
• Understand and apply the basic principles of reasoning (obtaining data, analysis, synthesis, comparison, rule of three, syllogism, analogy, etc.)
• Work with efficiency / accuracy / precision
• Develop critical thinking, test and monitor conclusions understanding the domain of validity, and explore alternative hypotheses
• Develop autonomy, set training objectives and make choices to achieve them
• Organise time and work, individually and in groups
• Prioritise
• Manage stress regardless of events (exams, presentations, etc.)

Learning Outcomes of UE

At the end of the instruction, students will have acquired a good kowledge of both the diversity of the animal kingdom and of their various body plans (comparative study of organs' structures and functions, of apparatuses and of systems).

Content of UE

Protozoa, metazoai (=méta) : diploblastics (porifera, cnidaria),  triploblastics (protostome lineage [e.g.annelida, mollusca, arthropoda] and deuterostome lineage [e.g., échinodermata, cordata]). General body plans; digestive, circulatory, respiratory, excretoty, and genital systems; muxcles and movements (locomotion); sensory structures; feeding behaviour; etc.
