NHPBM1031 Anatomy and Physiology for Rehabilitation Science 1
This unit will introduce the principles of human body structure and function as relevant for students of Occupational Therapy. This includes an introduction to cells and tissues, the nervous system and the function and relationships of bone muscle and joints. A detailed study of gross anatomical structure and functional anatomy of the skull, neck, vertebral column and upper limb will then be undertaken. An integrated understanding of the human body will be achieved with practical sessions, including the study of human cadaveric material and functional and clinical case-studies to facilitate the integration of material and the correlation of structure to function.
Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) unit fee
A Commonwealth Supported Place (CSP) is one that is subsidised by the Australian Government, which means students only pay the student contribution amount of the tuition fee. CSPs are only available to eligible domestic students.
The student contribution amount depends on the unit and how much funding the Government provides. Each unit is classified into a band based on its discipline (which may be different to your overall course discipline).
2025 student contribution amount: $1,164
2025 grandfathered student contribution amount (for students who commenced before 1 Jan 2021*): $1,164
* If you are a continuing student (who commenced your course before 1 January 2021) you will continue paying the same amount as you would have, had legislative reforms not been implemented for any units that would otherwise have an increased student contribution amount.
