This course is designed to present the broad spectrum of information commonly referred to as posology, which is defined as the study of dose and dosage in the field of applied pharmacology. This broad spectrum ranges from basic mathematics, elementary algebra, measurements, drug orders, and dose calculations to other calculations. The goal of This course is that each student be confident and capable of calculating correct drug doses regardless of the physical form of the medication.

2.00 Credits
This is a required basic course for all students in the Veterinary Science Technology program and is designed to give students "hands-on" experience prior to completion of the Veterinary Science Internship requirement (VETS 200). The laboratories emphasize the techniques and equipment which may be used for animal care and restraint, and allow students to become comfortable handling various species. An introduction to veterinary nursing procedures, which may be applied in a veterinary practice, are also presented. Additional morning hours are scheduled outside of class to provide care of companion animals housed at the College facilities. The course introduces students to faculty, staff, facilities, kennel and farm procedures, e-mail, library information systems, nutrition, OSHA and radiation safety standards, and other topics as deemed necessary. Prerequisite: Veterinary Science student or permission of the instructor (2: 1, 3) 0.000 OR 2.000 Credit Hours 0.000 OR 1.000 Lecture hours 0.000 OR 3.000 Lab hours Levels: Undergraduate, Undergraduate-Bachelor Program Schedule Types: Lecture, Laboratory Veterinary Science College Veterinary Science Division Veterinary Science Technology Department

4.00 Credits
This course provides students in the Veterinary Science Technology program with a basic knowledge of the structural and functional characteristics of the animal body. Instruction is provided through a lecture-and-laboratory systemic study of the gross and microscopic anatomy and physiology of domestic animals. Lectures and laboratory exercises emphasize an understanding of and an appreciation for the organized body state and the relationship of its various parts including cells, tissues, organs, and body systems. Microscopic examination of histological slides and computer software are employed for the study of basic tissues and organs. Examination of skeletons, models, prosected canine and feline cadavers, and other preserved specimens is used to study gross anatomical structures. Comparative aspects of other species, including an introduction to avian and reptilian anatomy and physiology, is included. Lecture and laboratory discussions begin the development of and require an understanding and use of anatomical and medical terminology. Lectures and laboratories include discussion and utilization of relevant clinical topics and materials. This course provides the basis and foundation upon which all of the subsequent technical courses are built. Prerequisites: High-school biology and chemistry and enrollment in the Veterinary Science program (4: 3, 3) 0.000 OR 4.000 Credit Hours 0.000 OR 3.000 Lecture hours 0.000 OR 3.000 Lab hours Levels: Undergraduate, Undergraduate-Bachelor Program Schedule Types: Lecture, Laboratory Veterinary Science College Veterinary Science Division Veterinary Science Technology Department
