B.E. (Biomedical Engineering) Human Anatomy and Physiology for Engineers HAPE Syllabus - Mumbai University 2026
This is the Second Year Biomedical Rev 2019 C Scheme syllabus under REV-2019 'C' Scheme, in force from the academic year 2020-21. The University also publishes a NEP 2020 syllabus for Semesters III and IV, which is what the current second year is taught; this scheme is what ATKT candidates of the earlier batches still sit. Check which scheme your examination form names before you revise.

Syllabus for Human Anatomy and Physiology for Engineers (HAPE)
Course Objective
- To understand the anatomical structures of the human body and their relationship to each other.
- To gain the knowledge of measurement of various physiological parameters of the human body. Course Outcome The learner will be able to :
- Demonstrate measurement of blood pressure using occlusive cuff method.
- Apply blood cell counting principles for measuring blood composition.
- Demonstrate the measurement of electrical activity of heart and the related parameters.
- Demonstrate the measurement of various lung volumes and capacities.
- Appropriately utilize laboratory equipment, such as microscopes, general lab ware, and virtual simulations.
- Locate and identify anatomical structures. Syllabus: Same as that of BMC302, Human Anatomy and Physiology for Engineers. University of Mumbai, Biomedical Engineering, Rev 2020-21 23 List of Laboratory Experiments: (Any Seven)
- 1 To measure blood pressure using sphygmomanometer.
- 2 To find the total red blood cell count using pre-prepared slides.
- 3 To find the total white blood cell count using pre-prepared slides.
- 4 To study the conduction system of the heart.
- 5 To study the twelve lead electrode scheme and operation of the ECG Machine.
- 6 To record ECG and measure its various parameters (amplitude, intervals/segment).
- 7 To record lung volumes and capacities using a spirometer.
- 8 Visit to the anatomy department of a hospital to view specimens (cardiovascular & respiratory systems).
- 9 Visit to the anatomy department of a hospital to view specimen (alimentary & renal systems).
- 10 Visit to the anatomy department of a hospital to view specimen (nervous system).
- 11 Present a case study on a given disease/abnormality that requires medical instruments for diagnosis/treatment.
- 12 Present case a study on a given disease/abnormality that requires medical instruments for diagnosis/treatment. Any other experiment/visit to the hospital/case study based on syllabus which will help learner to understand a topic/concept. Assessment: Term Work: Term work shall consist of minimum 7 experiments. The distribution of marks for term work shall be as follows: Laboratory work (Experiments) : 10 Marks Laboratory work (Journal) : 10 Marks Attendance : 05 Marks The final certification and acceptance of term work ensures the satisfactory performance of laboratory work and minimum passing in the term work.
