Abstract at the discipline "Microbiology, Virology",
studied as part of specialty 060101 "General Medicine" 
 General workload of the subject totals 7 credit units, 252 hours. 
 
The purpose of the mastering of the discipline "Microbiology, Virology" is to study classification, morphology and physiology of microorganisms and viruses, and their impact on public health, microbiological diagnostic methods; application of the main antibacterial, antiviral and biologicals.  
 
The purposes of the study of microbiology, virology students include: • understanding of the morphology and physiology of microorganisms;  
  • formation of ideas about the role of microorganisms in the etiology and pathogenesis of infectious diseases;  
  • study of the major clinical manifestations and prevalence of diseases caused;  
  • development of specific methods of diagnosis, prevention and treatment of infectious diseases. 
 
Academic discipline «Microbiology, Virology» refers to basic part of the cycle C1. Disciplines. «Microbiology, virology» based on the knowledge obtained during the course of studying biology, chemistry, and biochemistry. Competencies acquired during the study of microbiology, virology prepares students for the development of professional competencies. 
Main provisions of discipline should be used for further study of clinical disciplines («Epidemiology», «Infectious diseases», «Dermatovenereology» and « Phthisiology»). 
 
The discipline is aimed at the formation of general cultural and professional competences: 
  • GEC-1 abstract thinking, logical analysis and synthesis skills 
  • SPC-1 be able to perform the scope of measures aimed at protecting and promoting the health and safety of the public, including fostering healthy lifestyle, prevention of the diseases and their treatment, early diagnostic of medical conditions, their causes and conditions of their development, elimination of harmful environmental factors

  • SPC-5 be able to analyse patients complaints and medical history, results of medical examinations,  laboratory tests, special equipment diagnostics and others so as to determine the presence or absence of pathologies, medical disorders and diseases 
  • SPC-6 be able to determine the pathological states and conditions, symptoms and syndromes, nosology forms according to the International Classification of Diseases (N revision) 
  • During the study course "Microbiology, Virology" students learn knowledge on classification, morphology and physiology of microorganisms and viruses, and their impact on public health, methods of microbiological diagnostics; application of basic antibacterial, antiviral and biological preparations. 
  • On the basis of acquired knowledge formed the ability to work with magnifying devices (microscopes); use the acquired knowledge for the effective treatment of infectious and opportunistic diseases; to carry out the taking material for bacteriological and virological studies. 
  • Acquired skills of sterilization, disinfection and antiseptic treatment of instruments and equipment in order to avoid infection of the doctor and the patient; preliminary diagnosis based on the results of laboratory examination of patients. 
  • Types of educational work: lectures, practical classes, independent work, course work. 
  • The duration of the study of the discipline is two semesters.
