Bio 55 Human Anatomy and Physiology Online-hybrid Course
This "ONLINE-HYBRID" course is a course that is offered online, BUT REQUIRES students to complete
additional work on-site at the Rocklin campus scheduled on FOUR, specific Thursday sessions (specific dates/times listed below). Since the Bio 55 online-hybrid course has a laboratory component that must be completed in the laboratory, students will be required to attend all specific meetings throughout the semester (to complete the course). Lecture exams will be administered online, while lab practical exams will be administered on-campus during the on-campus sessions. Physiology lab exercises will also be performed at the Thursday sessions as well.

(NOTE: Since Fall, Spring, and Summer schedules may vary, see schedule below for the semester's
specific dates/times.)
