What is Contemporary Human Anatomy?
It’s called "contemporary" because it’s learning the human body through medical imaging and dissection – a different perspective than scientists have used for the past 100 years in anatomy.
This three-semester program marries traditional sciences and classic anatomy coursework with emerging technologies, such as virtual dissection, 3D printing and plastination.
