Following successful completion of this module, students should be able to:
1. Explain the classification and structure of bones and joints.
2. Describe regional anatomy of the upper and lower limbs.
3. Identify and label diagrams and images of anatomical structure, osteological specimens, and sectional anatomy.
4. Identify surface anatomical features on the human model.
5. Apply anatomical knowledge to clinical scenarios relevant to sports medicine.

Lectures and practicals will be offered in a face-to-face format wherever possible.

Topics include:
- Introduction to Anatomical Terminology & Osteology
Upper Limb:
- Bones, ligaments and joints of pectoral girdle (inc. arm)
- Bones, ligaments and joints of forearm (inc. elbow)
- Bones, ligaments and joints of hand (inc. wrist)
- Musculo-neuro-vascular systems of pectoral and dorsal regions
- Axilla and breast
- Musculo-neuro-vascular systems of arm, (inc rotator cuff & glenohumeral joint)
- Musculo-neuro-vascular systems of anterior compartment of forearm (inc. cubital fossa)
- Musculo-neuro-vascular systems of posterior compartment of forearm (inc radial fossa)
- Musculo-neuro-vascular systems of the hand (inc. carpal tunnel)
Lower Limb:
- Bones, ligaments and joints of pelvic girdle (inc. thigh)
- Bones, ligaments and joints of leg (inc. knee and ankle)
- Bones, ligaments and joints of foot (inc. arches)
- Musculo-neuro-vascular systems of gluteal region (hip and buttock)
- Musculo-neuro-vascular systems of Anterior & Posterior Thigh Compartments
- Musculo-neuro-vascular systems of Medial Thigh Compartment (inc. femoral triangle & adductor canal)
- Musculo-neuro-vascular systems of anterior and posterior compartments of leg (inc. popliteal fossa)
- Musculo-neuro-vascular systems of Lateral leg & Foot

A background in Biology is an advantage

• Feedback individually to students, post-assessment
• Group/class feedback, post-assessment

Group feedback will automatically be provided to the class group. Individual feedback (if requested) is provided primarily by email but may also take place in a prearranged one-to-one meeting subject to the availability of the marking examiner. Feedback is typically available within 20 working days of the assessment.
