Parasitology
Department website:
Briefing
This subject happens during the first semester and covers the most important parasites and parasitic diseases. The classes are a combination of a short lecture in the start, followed by making drawings of the parasites. You will need a book to draw in from the first class, so make sure to have that ready.
For this subject it is a good idea to get an overview of the theory, but also the pictures of the paracites as they will come on both the credits and the exam. Ask students from the years above, as they often have finished files with drawings for the individual credits.
It is a good idea to start early, as there is a lot of information to memorise for each parasite, and trying to memorise it all the weeks of the credits will in most cases not be enough time.
