Our History
Capilano University was founded as a college in 1968, with an initial enrolment of just over 700 students. Its founding was part of an effort in the 1960s to expand access to post-secondary education in British Columbia.
Capilano University started as a handful of classes offered after hours in portables at West Vancouver Secondary.
Fifty-five years later, with more than 10,000 students from 80 countries and 50,000 graduates, we can proudly say CapU is an academic hub for the North Shore and beyond.

The structure of the human body and the physiology of the various systems are examined and discussed.
This course is an introduction to the human body.
This course will introduce you to the anatomy (form) and physiology (function) that make up the human body. You will give special attention to the body as a whole, the interrelationships between organs and organ systems, as well as the diseases and disorders that can disrupt healthy body systems.
Anatomy and Physiology provides learners with an overview of the anatomy and basic physiology of the human body.
This course and its companion course, Human Anatomy and Physiology 2, deal with the relationship between structure and function in human biology.
