B. Course Objectives and Learning Outcomes
1. Course DescriptionDiagnostic Immunology provides an up-to-date knowledge of basic and technical immunology and serology as well as hands on practical laboratory applications of some common immunological and serological techniques. Students learn to use immunological assays, such as enzyme immunoassays and fluorescent antibody assays, for diagnosis of infectious diseases and immunological disorders.
2. Course Main Objective
To familiarize students with immunological techniques
3. Course Learning Outcomes: By the end of the course the student will be:
