IDIS 5141 - Infectious Diseases I

.25 credit hours

This course is taught by the Department of Microbiology and Immunology and uses an organ-systems-based approach to provide in-depth coverage of the etiology, epidemiology, signs and symptoms, pathology, lab tests, differential diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of infectious diseases. In addition to lectures, students perform online case exercises and they participate in exercises involving interpretation of clinical case information and presentation of analysis in a small group setting. The objective of this course is to develop in students an understanding of infectious diseases needed for subsequent clinical courses and rotations.
