BIOL 2305/2102 Human Physiology - Prerequisite Information

A. course prerequisite

BIOL 2304/2101 Human Anatomy = equivalent to any 4- or more hour college course with lecture and lab (or any combination of 3- or more hour lecture class and 1- or more hour lab class) specifically designated as human anatomy (high school courses are not equivalent) that covers all of the topics specified by the ACC Human Anatomy Common Course Objectives: http://www.austincc.edu/biology/BIOL2304f04obj.doc

If you think you have had other biology courses that are equivalent to ACC BIOL 2304/2101 and you can document the same course content from verifiable sources you MAY be able to show that you have sufficient prerequisite knowledge.

ACC BIOL 2304/2101 = UTA BIO 416K AND UTA BIO 416L (must have both components)

416K (TCCN: BIOL 2401). Physiology and Functional Anatomy I. Designed for prenursing and allied health students. Not recommended for premedical and predental students. Cell biology and histology; biochemistry; nervous, endocrine, and musculoskeletal systems. Taught in an integrated lecture-laboratory format. Three lecture hours, three laboratory hours, and one discussion hour a week for one semester. Prerequisite: For nutrition majors, Biology 211 or 311C, and Nutrition 311, with a grade of at least C in each; for others, Biology 211 or 311C with a grade of at least C and six semester hours of coursework in college chemistry.

416L (TCCN: BIOL 2402). Physiology and Functional Anatomy II. Designed for prenursing and allied health students. Not recommended for premedical and predental students. Cardiovascular, respiratory, renal, digestive, immune, and reproductive systems. Taught in an integrated lecture-laboratory format. Three lecture hours, three laboratory hours, and one discussion hour a week for one semester. Prerequisite: Biology 416K with a grade of at least C.

B. assessment exam

Before you can register for ACC BIOL 2305/2102 Human Physiology you must pass an ACC Biology Department Assessment Test to demonstrate high-school level chemistry knowledge. For more information go to http://www.austincc.edu/biology/humanind.

C. skill prerequisites

You must have college-level reading, writing and math skills as demonstrated on a state-approved assessment exam (see the course schedule for an explanation of skill prerequisites).
