Pharmaceutical Biotechnology (PHM452/PM401n/PM401/PM511n)

   

The course aims to provide students with fundamentals, scope and applications in biotechnology through studying fermentation technology, upstream, downstream, scaling up and down processes, use of molecular techniques for production of recombinant products and other major biotechnological products, biotransformation, bioremediation, bioleaching, and bioinsecticides.

Diagnostic Microbiology (PM411)

   This module aims at developing student’s skills with theoretical and practical knowledge on diagnosing the infectious diseases using conventional microbiological, serological and molecular-based diagnostic methods. The module also studies the possible causative agents and the diagnosis of different infectious diseases in the human body system-based manner. The student will learn procedural skills considered in a diagnostic microbiology laboratory including collection, quality control, quality assurance, safety, setup, identification, susceptibility testing and reporting results.

Public Health (PHM561/PM412n/PM501n/PM501)

This course aims at introducing the student to the bases and principles of public health; different measures of disease burden and health status. Different diseases of international public health significance will be reviewed, with a focus on epidemiologic research and methods used to describe and analyze disease determinants. The course also aims at exposing students to different interventions (prevention and control strategies) that are used to reduce the burden of both communicable and non-communicable diseases
