UNDERGRADUATE DEGREE COURSES
PATH 204.2
Immunology
Prerequisite(s): Restricted to students enrolled in the College of Medicine and the College of Dentistry.

Outlines the basic principles of immunology and the application of these principles to the understanding of infection and immunity, mechanisms of immune injury, and autoimmune disease.

PATH 205.3
Survey of Pathology
1/2(3L)
Prerequisite(s): Restricted to students enrolled in Pharmacy and Nutrtion, Physical Therapy, or by permission of the department.

General and special pathology for pharmacists and physical therapists.

PATH 301.6
General Pathology

Lectures, gross and microscopic demonstrations, and seminars for second year dental and medical students, dealing with the general pathological conditions common to all systems of the body. An introduction to systemic pathology is also included.

Note: This course is restricted to students enrolled in the College of Medicine and Dentistry.

PATH 302.6
Systemic Pathology

Study of the pathogenetic mechanisms and pathology involved in clinical disease processes as applied to patient management.

Note: This course is restricted to students enrolled in the College of Medicine and Dentistry.

PATH 303.6
Microbiology and Infectious Diseases I
Prerequisite(s): Restricted to students enrolled in the College of Medicine

Outlines the characteristics of microorganisms and emphasizes basic microbiologic principles. Incorporates both the etiologic approach to the teaching of medical microbiology and the systems approach to the teaching of infectious disease. Patient management problems stress the clinical approach to patients with infectious disease. Laboratory sessions emphasize the role of the laboratory in the diagnosis of infectious disease.

PATH 305.6
Human Oral Infectious Diseases
1(7L/P/T)
Prerequisite(s): Restricted to students enrolled in the College of Dentistry.

Consists of didactic lectures, laboratory exercises, and clinical microbiology conferences, part of which are taken in conjunction with the College of Medicine. Deals with the general principles of medical bacteriology, mycology, virology, parasitology, and the organisms involved in systemic infections in general and oral infections in particular. Complications of systemic infections with oral manifestations or oral infections resulting from dental procedures are discussed. The role of the medical laboratory in the diagnosis of infectious diseases is also discussed together with consideration of antimicrobial therapy in relation to both systemic and oral infections.

PATH 403.3
Microbiology and Infectious Diseases II
Prerequisite(s): Restricted to students enrolled in the College of Medicine.

MICR 303 and 403 cover the management of human infectious diseases, including diagnosis and treatment, and the underlying microbiological principles, using a largely case based format, with many small group sessions. The topics are scheduled over the available 1.5 years to complement the Systems approach to medical teaching.

PATH 841.6
Chemical Pathology
1,2&3(2S-12P)
Prerequisite(s): Permission of the department.

Consists of theoretical chemical pathology and is intended for students specializing in chemical pathology. Deals with management and operation of a hospital chemical laboratory. All the modern analytical techniques are studied with emphasis on principles, quality control, instrumentation and clinical interpretation. Both classical techniques and recent advances are included. A 32-week schedule is provided each student who will be required to do three half-days per week in the laboratory. Details of reading requirements are also provided with the study schedule.

PATH 842.6
General Pathology I Principles with Special Topics in Chemical Pathology
Prerequisite(s): Permission of the instructor/department.

Lectures and reports on special projects aimed at students with a non-medical background to introduce current topics in the area of human pathology. Emphasis will be placed on lab management, quality control and recent laboratory techniques involved in the detection of drugs/drugs of abuse in a chemical pathology lab.

PATH 843.6
General Pathology II Systemic with Special Topics in Chemical Pathology
Prerequisite(s): Permission of the instructor/department.

Lectures and reports on special projects aimed at students with a medical and non-medical background to introduce current topics in the area of human pathology. Emphasis will be placed on pathological process, diagnostic enzymology, various metabolic diseases, disorders of cardiovascular system, diagnostic clinical toxicology, and assessment of high-risk pregnancy.
