The Basic Science Department provides instruction in human science courses, such as Gross Anatomy, Physiology, and Functional Neurosciences, to many of the graduate schools and programs of the University. The Department also offers undergraduate pre-requisite courses in Anatomy and Physiology that are required for admission into graduate programs in the Health Sciences. Our laboratories provide a rich learning resource for the University and the Community.
Our graduate courses are part of the various curricula of the University, and admission to one of the programs is required. Our undergraduate courses are open to the public, and enrollment continues year-round until the course is full or begins. Courses are offered when minimal enrollment is met.
Accreditation:
Our courses are accredited by the accrediting bodies for each of the programs at the University. Our undergraduate courses are accredited by the Western Association of Schools and Colleges.
