About Us Academics Admissions Athletics Giving to the College Graduate Studies Library Student Life

"Body Quest is a challenging class made for those who are interested in human anatomy and physiology. It has a hands-on approach where the students dissect fetal pigs for most of their classroom time. The class takes field trips to the local cadaver lab and the pathology lab at UVa to see various human organs and bodies. Inside the classroom, the students learn about human body systems and how they work. Also through this, students get time to bond with their lab partners. In all, the Body Quest class is not a class for weak minds!"
