Program Summary

Haematology & Immunology is a specialized course in medical and biomedical sciences that focuses on the study of blood, blood-forming organs, and the immune system. It explores the composition, function, and disorders of blood components, including red and white blood cells, platelets, and plasma, as well as the mechanisms of blood clotting and haemostasis. The course also delves into the immune system, examining its role in defending the body against infections, autoimmune conditions, hypersensitivity reactions, and immunodeficiency disorders.  

 

Students gain an in-depth understanding of diseases such as anaemia, leukaemia, haemophilia, and thrombosis in haematology, while in immunology, they study conditions like allergies, autoimmune diseases, and immune system malfunctions. The course integrates theoretical knowledge with laboratory techniques, diagnostic methods, and therapeutic approaches, including blood transfusion, bone marrow transplantation, and immunotherapy.  

 

By combining clinical and research aspects, the course prepares students for careers in medical laboratories, research institutions, healthcare, and pharmaceutical industries. It also provides a foundation for further specialization in pathology, oncology, and transfusion medicine.
