MBIM 223 is a 5-credit course. Supplemental lectures may be presented during laboratory time. This Microbiology course is considered by some students to be a difficult course. Students are expected to learn a broad range of microbiology and immunology topics with direct health care applications. Precise learning and recall of complex subject matter is asked of the student, as contrasted with just an appreciation of general concepts required of the majority of courses in High School and the first two years of College.
Attendance is required.
The chapters are relatively short and the material in the chapters is required learning and will be tested. Organize your study around the material emphasized in the lecture. The test format will be of multiple choice or matching type. The questions are derived from the subject matter presented in the lecture as well as from the assigned reading in the text. Exams will not be postponed.
