The aim of the course:
The aim of the molecular immunology and immune system disorders for graduate program students is to introduce molecular immunology and immune system disorders that will be beneficial throughout their educational and professional life. During this course the basic principles of immunology and the working mechanism of the immune system and immune system disorders topics will be taught to students.
 
Programme OutcomesCTPOTOA
Upon successful completion of the course, the students will be able to :
PO - 1 : Learn immune system and working principles of the system1,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,111
PO - 2 : Have information about antigens and immunogens. 1,2,3,4,5,6,8,9,10,111
