Postgraduate Certificate in Science (PGCertSci) - Anatomy

Anatomy – you can’t leave home without it. It’s with you everywhere you go. It holds you together, it controls what you think and do, it enables you to run, jump, and play. So as you might expect, there is more to studying Anatomy than immediately meets the eye. There’s cell biology, neurobiology, clinical and functional anatomy, body systems, reproductive biology, developmental biology, and biological anthropology. The University of Otago is the only New Zealand university to offer a bachelor’s degree majoring in Anatomy. You have the opportunity to explore the traditional approaches to studying Anatomy, as well as using the latest techniques and hi-tech equipment to explore the human body at all levels of its structure: from single cells to multi-organ systems.

Admission to the programme shall be subject to the approval of the Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Science). Every applicant must have been awarded the bachelor's degree, or have alternative qualifications or experience acceptable to the Pro-Vice-Chancellor (Sciences).
