Περιγραφή Μαθήματος

Physiology 3rd semester

Aim

At the end of this course, which is delivered by both lectures and practical sessions, students will be able to describe mechanisms underlying the following physiological systems and functions of the human body:

-Precision medicine

-Endocrine system

-Reproduction

-Blood

-Immune system

-Musculoskeletal system

-Metabolism

-Thermoregulation

 

Objective

The main objective of this course is to provide knowledge regarding cellular physiology and physiological functioning of specific systems of the human body (see above).

Attendance

Attendance is mandatory for both lectures and labs/clinical practice.

Students are allowed to miss up to 10 lecture hours/5 lectures (corresponding to a maximum of 20% of the total course hours). Absence is not allowed in the Labs.

 

Examinations

This course is assessed through written multiple-choice question (MCQ) exams (75 questions in 75 minutes). Access to written exams is granted only for the students who fully completed the practical session. In case of failure, the candidate can resit the examination during the resit examination period.

A grade of five (5) out of ten (10) or higher is required for a course to be considered complete.

The minimum grade of 5 (five) corresponds to 50% correct answers from the total number of questions in the paper, in each exam.

In case the student fails the exam (lower than 50% of correct answers), he has the right to try again in the repeat exam in September.
