This is an outline of anatomy & physiology courses offered by the Life Sciences Department.
Each course is intended for a different group of students, primarily distinguished by the allied health program the student is planning to enroll in.
| Course # | Course Title | Units | Intended for... |
| ANAT 140 | Fundamentals of Anatomy & Physiology | 2 | med. asst., dental asst., psych. tech. |
| ANAT 40 | Intro to Human Anatomy & Physiology | 4 | paramedic |
| ANAT 58 | Introduction to Human Anatomy | 3 | rad tech, LVN |
| ANAT 1 | General Human Anatomy | 5 | ADN, dental hygiene, PT |
| PHYSIO 58 | Introduction to Human Physiology | 3 | rad tech, LVN |
| PHYSIO 1 | Human Physiology | 5 | ADN, dental hygiene, PT |
Note the following:
Information about course prefixes:
- anatomy courses have ANAT prefix
- physiology courses have PHYSIO prefix
- combined A&P courses also have ANAT prefix
The highest level courses are UC transferable (1);
Introductory courses are CSU transferable (58), except ANAT 40 = intro and both CSU and UC transferable;
Fundamental and basic skills course, ANAT 140, is for AA degree only
Non- health care bound students could take either:
ANAT 140 for a very basic overview of how the body works
or
ANAT 58 for introductory level, just anatomy, course (e.g. dance, art students)
