    About Bachelor of Human Physiology

    Human physiology is the science of how the human body functions in health and disease.  

    A degree in human physiology provides excellent preparation for careers or graduate study in biomedical research and the health professions or related disciplines.

    Students examine human physiological systems from the molecular and cellular levels to the human body as a whole. This area of study uses basic science to measure human responses to internal and external stimuli (such as changes in activity levels, varying environmental conditions, and disease processes), and applies this knowledge to the promotion of human health. 

    Also, students who major in human physiology may not earn the minor in human physiology or the minor in physical activity and nutrition science.
