Teaching methods

In classroom lectures and studying with anatomy models, self studies in Moodle workspace: Teacher´s recordings, anatomy assignments and other materials as well as textbook. Students are obliged to attend classroom studies.

Location and time

Metropolia UAS, Myllypuro Campus, weeks 35-42 (orientation about one week before)
