At the end of this course the students should be able to understand anatomy of human locomotor system, to define and list both its passive and active components; the students should be able to explain the anatomical structure and function of the skeletal system and muscular apparatus of the human body and use this knowledge in anthropological studies and research; such proficiency is essential for a study in any area of the knowledge of man;

This primary knowledge is supported by students individual work at home with study texts and anatomical atlas, eventually with multimedia study aids. Final finishing and mastering of knowledge of particular anatomical objects, elements and systems is carried out practically using anatomical preparations and models in an associated class Anatomy for anthropologists I - practical training.
- Assessment methods
- The course is concluded with an oral exam. Advance to the oral exam on condition of passing an admission test – 9 points from from 16 possible in multiple choice, one correct answer test. The oral exam includes approx. 70 topics. The students draw one topic from the skeletal system group, one from the arthrology group and one from the myology group. To pass the exam an adequate knowledge of human locomotor system is required.
