The main goal of the course is to give students who already have basic knowledge of microbiology an insight into the following:
a) Microbiological protocols for diagnosis and monitoring of infections in different organ systems.
b) The problem of intrahospital infections, the primary routes of their transmission and the role of the microbiology laboratory in the prevention and control of these infections.
c) Microbiological protocols for diagnosis and monitoring of infections in immunocompromised patients.
d) Microbiological diagnosis of emerging and re-emerging diseases.
e) Practical recommendations for interpretation of results of microbiological diagnosis.

Make-ups and signatures
Grading Policy of Clinical Microbiology course
A test of 30 multiple-choice questions (MCQ) performs the final assessment of student learning outcomes.
The exam result is expressed as "passed" or "not passed" (there are no grades).
The test is passed when the score is 16/30 (50% plus 1) or higher.
