Pathophysiology

Course Description: Pathophysiology students will develop a deep understanding of normally observed body system functioning that maintains homeostasis. Students will study abnormal functioning of the body that disturbs its normal physiological processes through an integration of biology, chemistry, and medicine. Using critical thinking and scientific problem solving skills students will perform investigations to describe and identify imbalances/abnormalities due to diseases or pathology.
