3. Critically evaluate and utilise a wide range of information to solve problems effectively using appropriate methods that are relevant to the morphological health sciences and communicate knowledge and findings to other people.
4. Apply technical skills and scientific methods using relevant instruments and equipment to conduct sound research that conforms to the legal, safety and bioethical requirements pertinent to good laboratory practice in the health sciences.
5. Produce a research project in a scientific format within the context of the morphological health sciences, with results and conclusions that are presented to a group. Critical Cross-Field Outcomes: Critical Cross-Field Outcomes are integrated into the various teaching and learning components of the modules and will ensure that graduates are able to: Identify complex problems and solve problems through critical and innovative thinking, responsible and independent decision-making and application of basic and advanced scientific methods. Apply basic and advanced scientific methods and technology efficiently and responsibly. Efficiently manage the collection, organisation, analysis, evaluation, integration and application of information from various sources. Organise and manage self competently and efficiently to ensure independence. Develop self with emphasis on insight, responsibility, accountability, continued learning, self-criticism, acceptance of criticism from others and the ability to work independently. Be able to work as part of a team and to add value to the larger group through constructive collaboration, cooperation and self-initiated new actions. Communicate effectively through presentation of information and data by means of oral, audiovisual and written skills and by demonstrating appropriate linguistic and computer proficiency. Demonstrate a holistic approach to problem solving within the context of respect and sensitivity for other people, the community, and the environment. Show understanding of the importance and the potential applications of health sciences in general and anatomical and histological sciences in particular to the community through the communication of knowledge and results and the transfer of relevant technology. Apply or utilise the opportunities, challenges, requirements and ethical principles that apply to research and good practice in the health science professions.
