Immunology

Briefing

This subject combines lectures and classes, with no labs. The lectures are online, and the classes are held in person. The professor usually provides PowerPoint presentations, but to fully understand the material, it's important to keep up with both lectures and classes since there’s a lot to cover.  

There are two credits during the semester, and the professor often covers specific topics for the credits right before them. It's a good idea to request a review class before the credits, or to ask older students for their study material.
