Learning outcomes
Demonstrate knowledge and understanding in a post-secondary level field of study, including on cutting-edge topics in their field of study, with the support of advanced textbooks;
be able to apply the acquired knowledge to devise and argue arguments, both to solve problems and apply techniques and methods within their field of study
collect and interpret data useful for autonomously making judgments, including reflection on social, scientific or ethical issues connected to them
communicate information, ideas, problems and solutions to specialist and non-specialist interlocutors;
develop the necessary skills to undertake further studies with a high degree of autonomy
Prerequisites
It appears USEFUL and important to have basic knowledge of the anatomy of the respiratory system and the physiological mechanisms that regulate breathing.
