2nd to 3rd Year

Pathomorphology is an extensive course which begins in winter semester of 2nd year and concludes with a final exam in winter semester of 3rd year. Thus, making it a rather challenging course.

This subject deals with the appearance of  different pathological diseases at a morphological and histological level. Therefore, the student should be aware that their knowledge of histology is very important - as this will be a crucial element in the students overall understanding of the course.

The course presents with weekly classes and lectures. Additionally, credits are written every two weeks - therefore, continuous studying is important.

Detailed information of the schedule, as well as rules and regulations is to be found on a seperate website ran by the department. Students should regularly watch out for updates and important announcements on this website.

Familiarise yourself with every professor and their approach to questions for the credits, as this varies between the different professors. If you have any questions - it is recommended to approach your professor at the department, as emailing has varying degrees of response rate.

A book recommended by professors is "Robbins Pathology." , while students find "Pathoma" and "BRS Pathology" to be easier to comprehend. Osmosis is another extensively used resource. "Webpath Utah" is also useful to access examples of histological slides.  

Consistent reading and revision is key!
