Course Objectives:
Pathology is literally the study of diseases. It is a bridging course connecting basic medical subjects to clinical disciplines. The aim of the course for students is to learn the pathological morphological changes and functions disorders in cells ,tissues and organs that underlie diseases, let students recognize the characteristics of the diseases and the correlation of the pathology and clinical symptoms, provide the fundamental knowledge to students to further study clinical courses of medicine.
The study of pathology is divided into general pathology and systemic pathology, the former focuses on the current principle understanding of causes, mechanism and fundamental cellular and tissue changes of the major categories of diseases, while the latter examines the particular responses of individual organs or system to pathologic stimuli. Which stress the relationship between the morphological changes and functional abnormality, local lesions and whole body responses and pathological changes and clinical manifestation in some common diseases. Moreover, the course will introduce the current advance of pathology in developing modern medicine.

Course Requirements:
This course will involve the student as a whole person in the classroom, it divided into three parts:
1. Lecture:
Students will learn about the fundamental knowledge of pathology and improve the ability of primary analysis of pathological-clinical relation.
2. Experimental teaching:
Ii is a training for students to examining the pathological specimens and slides by students themselves,.
3. Autopsy observation and clinical—pathological conference:
This practice will improve students’ logical thinking ability for pathological problems.
