MCBA D602 - Medical Microscopic Anatomy
Credits: 5
A five-credit-hour, fall semester, first-year course in which the structure of cells, tissues, and organs is studied and the functional significance of their morphological features is presented. Students observe, firsthand, histological structures in human tissues through the study of microscopic slides, digitized images, and electron micrographs in the laboratory. Students integrate basic concepts and principles of microscopic structures as they pertain to clinical medicine. Web-based instructional methods and videodisc databases are used to present images and other supporting information relating to overall course content, primarily during laboratory sessions. The goal of laboratory sessions is to facilitate critical thinking skills and correlation of basic science information with clinical problems. The course provides the structural basis for understanding principles to be learned in biochemistry, physiology, and pathology.
Primary methods of instruction include lecture, computer-assisted instruction, and independent learning experiences.
Modes of assessment include departmental written multiple choice examinations, and laboratory practical examinations.
Note: Restricted to medical students.
