BA Integrative Physiology

Physiology is the field of biology that deals with function in living organisms. The academic foundation of the department is the knowledge of how humans and animals function at the level of genes, cells, organs and systems. Our multidisciplinary curriculum requires students to take foundational courses in anatomy, biochemistry, mathematics, physics, physiology and statistics. With this basic knowledge, students can undertake a flexible curriculum that includes the study of biomechanics, cell physiology, endocrinology, immunology, exercise physiology and neurophysiology. The department also encourages student participation in research.
