Study of structural organization of the human body from cellular to organ system level of organization and its application to clinical scenarios. Gross and microscopic anatomy of the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, sensory, endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, excretory, and reproductive systems of the human body.

This course provides students with an intensive eight-week experience in anatomical cadaver dissection and the application of structure to kinesiological function. The primary purpose of this course is to provide clinicians with a solid anatomical basis for understanding normal and abnormal function of the musculoskeletal system. This information is essential for the development of effective treatment interventions.

In this course, students will gain a theoretical understanding of the skills and pedagogical approaches needed for the teaching of human anatomy using evidence-based approaches.

In this course, learners will have the opportunity to work alongside a faculty member to engage with anatomy students. Learners will have the opportunity to work with anatomy students in lecture and laboratory setup. They will use evidence-based approaches to prepare and deliver learning materials.

This course focuses on the relationship of the human nervous system to performance of occupations. Specific neurological systems covered will include sensory, motor, limbic, cognitive, visual, and vestibular and ventricles that correlate to common conditions seen by occupational therapists. Cases and lab experiences will assist the student in integrating neurologic concepts.

To provide students with an understanding of embryological events related to the development of a particular body region or system.

Gross and microscopic anatomy of the integumentary, skeletal, muscular, nervous, sensory, endocrine, cardiovascular, lymphatic, respiratory, digestive, excretory, and reproductive systems of the human body.

This course is designed to develop an understanding of normal clinical anatomy through an integrated anatomical approach to the study of human body structure. Students will work in small groups and actively participate in full anatomy cadaver dissection labs. These labs are complemented with lectures covering the systematic and developmental anatomy of the human body within a clinical context.

This course will cover human gross anatomy with an emphasis on the structure and physiology of the musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, cardiopulmonary, and integumentary systems to provide a foundation for the practice of occupational therapy. Other anatomical systems (nervous system, digestive, urinary) will be covered briefly, especially as they relate to the function of the four emphasized systems. Emphasis is on the structure and functional relationships of human anatomy and application of knowledge to clinical conditions through lecture and small lab group experiences.

Students will view and identify prosections from body donors to assist in learning structure and function of the musculoskeletal, neuromuscular, cardiopulmonary, and integumentary systems. Students will also meet with course faculty to discuss important anatomical concepts and apply knowledge to occupational therapy practice.

This course introduces graduate students to the principles, theories, and methods of bioethical analysis. Students will explore major ethical frameworks and their application to contemporary issues in medicine and biomedical research, including patient autonomy, informed consent, end-of-life decision making, allocation of scarce resources, emerging biotechnologies, and professional responsibility. Through case studies, readings, and discussion, students will develop skills in ethical reasoning and critical reflection that are essential for responsible practice and leadership in health care and biomedical sciences.

This course provides advanced study in the essential research of a specific discipline in biomedical sciences. Fundamental skills in reading and evaluating research will be acquired, including examining research paradigms, critically appraising study design and findings, and determining the practical relevance of the results.

This course provides students with guidance in the research process to deepen knowledge in an area of their professional interest. Students will complete and present an original research project including preliminary statistical design, data collection, data analysis, and presentation of results.

This course will engage students in relevant topics in biomedical sciences. Experts will be invited to present on a broad range of topics relevant to biomedical sciences students.

The comprehensive examination tests mastery of applied and theoretical concepts appropriate for the Master of Science degree. Exams consist of a one-day written exam (4-6 hours).

This course provides an extended experience for the student to produce a final project on a specific topic of professional interest. Under the direction of a faculty advisor, the student will advance through the preparation and defense of a capstone project. This course aims to enable students in a graduate program to gather and/or analyze data to advance their field and professional standing. The qualified student will have previously defended a project proposal successfully in KIN 6005.
