  • BIO 160: Medical and Scientific Terminology

    2.00 Credits
    Post University

    An essential part of learning biology or almost any other science is the mastery of the terminology used. This task may be made easier if one becomes more aware of the meaning and derivation of the word elements (parts) that form these technical terms. By becoming familiar with the word elements, technical terms become easier to remember, and newly encountered words are easier to understand. Students in this course learn (in both group and individual competitions) to establish a personal database of these word elements so that they can more accurately understand novel scientific and medical terminology.
