Teaching method
The Anatomy Curricular Unit is divided into a Theoretical Course (Theoretical
Classes) and a Practical Course (Practical Classes). The student must
complete both courses in order to maximize learning.
Theoretical Course (Lectures) - The Theoretical Course will consist of
lectures. All programmatic content will be addressed sequentially. These
classes are optional attendance, being given in person or previously
recorded and made available on the Moodle platform.
Practical Course (Practical Classes) - The Practical Course will complement
the Theoretical Course. In each class there will be a summary, whose themes
will be discussed by the teacher and the students. There will be 2 classes per
week, of 110 minutes each, taking place according to the approved schedule.
Besides the discussion of the syllabus, during the Practical Course, students
will be able to
- Observe anatomical models present in the Anatomy Department of the
NMS.
- Proceed to the presentation of group work
Evaluation method
Distributed throughout the semester/school year, with final evaluation exam/test.

concepts that each one of these areas in the areas of Descriptive,
Topographical, Clinical and Imaging Anatomy.
General Anatomy: divisions of Anatomy, anatomical nomenclature,
anatomical or descriptive position, descriptive or reference plans;
Anatomy of Locomotion: osteo-arthrology and myology of the upper limbs,
lower limbs, bone head, thorax and dorsum; topography of the axillary
excavate, arm, forearm, hand, gluteal region, thigh, knee, leg, foot, thorax,
dorsum, abdominal wall and perineum;
