Internal/External

The Perimeter College Department of Life and Earth Sciences includes a wide-ranging community of students, staff members and distinguished faculty scholars in the fields of biology, environmental science, geology and integrated sciences. We celebrate the diversity of our students, faculty and staff as one of our greatest assets.

Students taking courses in our department may go on to continue their education and prepare for careers in the STEM (science, technology, engineering and mathematics) fields or health professions. Others pursue non-science educational goals and careers.

Our students exhibit diversity in their learning styles, as well. In response, our faculty use varied teaching practices and technology to engage them in learning, scientific reasoning and critical thinking.

Perimeter College is seeking part-time instructors in ANATOMY AND PHYSIOLOGY who will play a key role in educating and supporting students.

Perimeter College offers Anatomy and Physiology I and II.

Anatomy and Physiology I: This is the first of a two-course sequence in anatomy and physiology designed to meet the requirements for nursing, dental hygiene, physical education, and other health science majors. Topics covered include animal cell structure and function, cell chemistry, cell division, metabolism, tissues, integumentary system, skeletal system, muscle system and nervous system.

Anatomy and Physiology I Lab: This is a laboratory covering microscopic survey of animal cells and tissues, skeletal system, muscular system (animal dissection and muscle identification using human models), nervous system with emphasis on the brain and sense organs.

Anatomy and Physiology II: This course is a continuation of Anatomy and Physiology I and covers the concepts of human anatomy and physiology that were not considered in Human Anatomy and Physiology I. Topics include metabolism and the digestive, cardiovascular, respiratory, urinary, endocrine, and reproductive systems.

Anatomy and Physiology II Lab: This is a laboratory covering blood and the cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, urinary, endocrine, and reproductive systems.
