NU 102 - Medical Terminology
Credit(s): 2
Medical terminology provides an approach to learning health-related terms. The course introduces students to the background, context, and basic concepts which underlie medical terminology. Technical vocabulary in areas of physiology, pathology, and medical procedures are presented along with prefixes, suffixes, and combining forms derived from Greek and Latin - an important foundation for medical terminology. This course will assist students in understanding and using the medical terminology necessary in a growing number of professional areas. In addition to students of nursing, pre-med, and physical therapy, others who would benefit from this course include students in occupational therapy, sports medicine, physical education, teacher education, and pre-law.
