Program Summary

Veterinary Microbiology is a course that focuses on the study of microorganisms, including bacteria, viruses, fungi, and parasites, that affect animals' health. It explores the role of these microorganisms in causing diseases, their mechanisms of infection, and the immune responses they trigger in different animal species. The course covers methods for diagnosing infectious diseases, laboratory techniques for identifying pathogens, and antimicrobial treatments used in veterinary medicine. It also emphasizes disease prevention, including vaccination and biosecurity measures, to control the spread of infections in livestock, pets, and wildlife. Additionally, the course examines zoonotic diseases, which are infections transmitted between animals and humans, highlighting their impact on public health. Practical sessions may include microbiological culture techniques, microscopic examination of pathogens, and diagnostic testing. The course is essential for understanding the microbial aspects of animal health and is a key component of veterinary medicine education.
