In Progress
Please note that this Unit Profile is still in progress. The content below is subject to change.Overview
This unit builds on the anatomy taught in Human Anatomy and physiology 1 and 2 (BMSC11010 and BMSC11011), as well as Neuromusculoskeletal Anatomy 1 (CHIR12004). You will further develop your knowledge of anatomy and physiology, which will include studies in gross anatomy, embryology and histology, clinical and living anatomy. You will integrate this, where appropriate, with other basic sciences. The focus for this unit is neuroanatomy and the anatomy of the head and neck region.

Important note: Students enrolled in a subsequent unit who failed their pre-requisite unit, should drop the subsequent unit before the census date or within 10 working days of Fail grade notification. Students who do not drop the unit in this timeframe cannot later drop the unit without academic and financial liability. See details in the Assessment Policy and Procedure (Higher Education Coursework).
Offerings For Term 2 - 2024
Attendance Requirements
All on-campus students are expected to attend scheduled classes – in some units, these classes are identified as a mandatory (pass/fail) component and attendance is compulsory. International students, on a student visa, must maintain a full time study load and meet both attendance and academic progress requirements in each study period (satisfactory attendance for International students is defined as maintaining at least an 80% attendance record).
Recommended Student Time Commitment
Each 6-credit Undergraduate unit at CQUniversity requires an overall time commitment of an average of 12.5 hours of study per week, making a total of 150 hours for the unit.

Assessment Overview
Assessment Grading
This is a graded unit: your overall grade will be calculated from the marks or grades for each assessment task, based on the relative weightings shown in the table above. You must obtain an overall mark for the unit of at least 50%, or an overall grade of ‘pass’ in order to pass the unit. If any ‘pass/fail’ tasks are shown in the table above they must also be completed successfully (‘pass’ grade). You must also meet any minimum mark requirements specified for a particular assessment task, as detailed in the ‘assessment task’ section (note that in some instances, the minimum mark for a task may be greater than 50%). Consult the University’s Grades and Results Policy for more details of interim results and final grades.

Feedback, Recommendations and Responses
Every unit is reviewed for enhancement each year. At the most recent review, the following staff and student feedback items were identified and recommendations were made.
Feedback from SUTE
Students felt that the presentation and assessment content would benefit from review prior to publication.
It is recommended that all assessments and teaching content are reviewed for quality prior to publication.
Feedback from SUTE
Some students felt that the quality of the lecture recordings could be improved upon.
It is recommended that the Unit Coordinator update lecture recordings to ensure a high quality standard.
- Explain the embryologic processes that underpin anatomy, neuroanatomy and physiology of the human body
- Describe the osteology, arthrology, myology, arterial supply, venous and lymphatic drainage and innervation of the head and neck region
- Describe the structure, function and integration of components within the central and peripheral nervous system
- Identify, where appropriate, using bones, models, images and/or the living subject, the structures forming the nervous system and the head and neck region
- Apply your knowledge of anatomy, neuroanatomy and physiology to clinical case studies.
