Structured into the following modules:
The module of Human Anatomy aims to provide students with the fundamental morphological aspects of the structures and fiction of the Human body, with particular regard to the different aspects of anatomy-macroscopic and topographical, as well as microscopic for the subsequent understanding of functional aspects. In particular
KNOWLEDGE AND UNDERSTANDING: Morphological and semilogical knowledge of the apparatuses with importance to the stomatognatic apparatus.
AUTONOMY OF JUDGMENT: know how to carry out a reasoning on a preventive and adapted basis
COMMUNICATION SKILLS: Know how to express oneself correctly from a technical point of view with morphological and physiological lexicon
LEARNING SKILLS: Knowing how to interpret and synthesize a specific text by referring to the comment of a clinical case. The clinical case deals both with morphology as anatomy and histology but also with their function as physiology.
know the biochemical components of life
The integrated course of human and clinical anatomy aims to present the anatomo-clinical characterization of the human body at both macroscopic and microscopic and ultrastructural levels, also in the temporal dimension ranging from embryonic development, organogenesis, somatic growth and ageing.
At the end of the course, the student will have to know the essential morphological and biomechanical characteristics, the modes of operation and the general mechanisms of control of the systems, systems, organs, tissues, cells of the human organism, as well as their main morpho-functional correlates under normal conditions.

Oral examination through partial tests with a single and contextual final assessment within the evaluation committee.
The student will have to take the individual partial tests ( locomotor anatomy, general anatomy) in the appeals provided by the exam calendar of the Degree Course.
In particular, the performance of partial tests, the results of which must be published using the IT tool «Partial tests» provided for by the Esse3 platform and will be recorded as a single final appeal in which the Commission carries out the verification of the overall results of the integrated teaching and its record-keeping.
The Student must register for the online exam of the partial test on ESSE3. The vote of the partial test will be considered valid until the extraordinary session of the academic year of reference.The student, to pass the examination related to the teaching will have to obtain an assessment 18 in each of the partial tests, will not be able to refuse the outcome of the partial test, but only the vote of the entire integrated course and, in this case, will have to repeat all the partial tests.
Grade 29-30 and praise: the student has a THOROUGH knowledge of the subject has excellent communication skills and masters the medical-scientific language.Grade 26-28: the student has a GOOD knowledge of the subject and clearly exposes the arguments using an appropriate medical-scientific language;
Grade 22-25: the student has a DECENT knowledge of the subject, even if limited to the main topics and exposes the topics in a fairly clear with a decent property of language;
Grade 18-21: the student has the MINIMUM knowledge of the subject and exposes the topics in a sufficiently clear although the property of language is poorly developed; Exam not passed: the student DOES NOT HAVE THE MINIMUM KNOWLEDGE required of the main contents of the teaching. The ability to use the specific language is very little or nothing and is not able to apply the acquired knowledge independently.
This course explores topics closely related to one or more goals of the United Nations 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development (SDGs)
