This course provides an introduction to human gross anatomy. Using prosected anatomical resources, students will learn macroscopic structure of human organ systems including the musculoskeletal, nervous and visceral systems. This course is pertinent to higher level studies in the biological sciences and is a prerequisite for 3rd year dissection and research courses in human anatomy.
BIOM2020 aims to provide an understanding of the macroscopic structure of the human body. This goal will be obtained using a combination of lectures and prosected cadavers in the UQ Gross Anatomy Facility (GAF). You will learn: the language of anatomy; basic structure and function of major anatomical systems of the body; how to identify and describe superficial and deep body structures in situ;ﾠgain an appreciation of ethical matters surrounding the study of human material; and how to handle human remains in a mortuary setting.
Human body structure will be learnt by organ system and will include musculoskeletal, nervous and visceral systems.
BIOM2020 is a pre-requisite for higher level anatomy courses (BIOM3002, BIOM3003 and ANAT3022) and is recommended for pursuit of Honours and/or Postgraduate studies in functional morphology/forensic anthropology/anatomy/biomechanics. A human anatomy textbook and a photographic anatomy atlas are strongly recommended during this course for student reference.
Practical classes will be conducted in the Gross Anatomy Facility (GAF) in the Otto Hirschfeld Building (#81), St Lucia Campus using human cadaveric specimens. Students unable to fully participate for medical, personal or religious reasons, should discuss their situation with the Course Coordinator prior to enrolment.
Of special note:
- The study of real human anatomy depends on altruistic gifts of donors and demands a respectful behaviour and professional attitude of students and staff at all times (see Learning Resources for compulsory training and relevant acts and policy documents). Students should note that it is a requirement under Queensland law to appropriately conduct themselves when examining any material derived from donated human cadavers. The Transplantation and Anatomy Act, 1974 (Qld), s34 (2) states that: "A person who performs an anatomical examination upon a body shall do so in a quiet, orderly and decent manner." A failure to comply with this rule of the Anatomy Act may be regarded as a criminal offence under part s236 (b) of the Criminal Code Act, 1899 (Qld) which states "A person improperly or indecently interferes with, or offers any indignity to, any dead human body or human remains, whether buried or not...is liable to imprisonment...". Any such breaches may be referred to, or prosecuted by, the police.
- As per the SBMS Code of Conduct for Use of Human Tissues (see Learning Resources), personal electronic devices including mobile phones, cameras, tablets and other recording devices, must not be used anywhere in the anatomy teaching facilities, and they cannot be carried on your person (even in the off position) beyond the bag rack areas. Exemptions may be provided by the GAF manager for certain medical conditions. Use of the cadavers for entertainment, profit, and/or other personal purposes is strictly prohibited. Unauthorised photography, electronic imaging, and/or postings on social media that compromise donor confidentiality or discuss dissecting room protocol are banned. Severe penalties apply for breach of these rules, including expulsion from the University.
- Learning Resources provides further information.

Task description
Complete the MCQ online quizzes for each week, at the course Blackboard site. Each quiz will comprise a randomly drawn set of 12 MCQ questions pertaining to the relevant content. Details of the quiz format and marking criteria will be provided on Blackboard during the semester.
Undertake each quiz as many times as you like prior to the quiz due date. The score of your last attempt will be the score that counts towards your grade when undertaking the test multiple times. At least ten (10) of the 12 quizzes MUST be completed across the semester to be eligible for the full 30%. Out of all quizzes that you attempt, your top ten quiz results will be counted for your mark on this assessment piece and will add towards a total of 30% attainable for the course on this assessment item.
A mark of zero will be recorded if an assessment item is not submitted.
Further assessment details will be provided on Blackboard during the semester.
This assessment task evaluates student’s abilities, skills and knowledge without the aid of Artificial Intelligence (AI). Students are advised that the use of AI technologies to develop responses is strictly prohibited and may constitute student misconduct under the Student Code of Conduct.
Submission guidelines
Complete quizzes through Blackboard each week online.
We recommend that you do not use the Blackboard Phone App nor a wireless network connection when completing this Blackboard assessment. Both are unstable and could affect your ability to complete your Blackboard assessment, by for example:
- you may lose connectivity and lose the work you have completed;
- your submission could indicate you have completed your assessment task, but nothing has been delivered into Blackboard.
Please ensure that you only use a reliable internet connection.
Deferral or extension
You may be able to apply for an extension.
The maximum extension allowed is 7 days. Extensions are given in multiples of 24 hours.
Extensions are limited to 7 days to encourage immediate engagement with course material and to support effective and timely learning.
Requests for extension must be made prior to the submission deadline, even if you are awaiting your supporting documentation. Late requests for extension will not be accepted for consideration unless you provide evidence of exceptional circumstances preventing you from submitting a request prior to the deadline, e.g., due to hospitalisation.
If you have been granted an extension, then the assessment specified penalty listed under Late Submission will be applied to submissions made after the due date of the approved extension

This practical exam will be run in successive groups. You must be available for the entire exam time across all groups. This could be up to 4 hours.
This exam will focus on material covered after the In-Semester exam. However, all course content is assessable during this exam due to system integrations.
For example, regarding muscle innervations, nervous system (covered post-In-Semester exam) ties to muscular and osteological system (pre-In- Semester exam).
Subsequently, questions on the nervous system may include muscular and osteological components. Students may be asked questions on the muscular system, such as: name a muscle that the pinned peripheral nerve innervates.
Further assessment details will be provided on Blackboard during the semester.
This assessment task is to be completed in-person. The use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) tools will not be permitted. Any attempted use of AI may constitute student misconduct under the Student Code of Conduct.
