Course objectives
Course objectives.
At the end of the course students should be able to:
1. Understand and explain the structure of a cell, basic structural principles and function of connective tissues, features of epithelial tissue, structure of different types of muscle tissue, structure and function of nervous tissue.
2. Identify tissue types in histologic slides.
3. Characterize microscopic structure of individual organs of human body and explain correlations of tissues within organs.
4. Describe gamete development, explain principle of meiosis and regulation of gametogenesis.
5. Define the early embryonic development as well as development of fetal membranes, placenta and umbilical cord.

Assessment methods
Final examination is composed of the practical part (slide test) and the theoretical part that includes written test and oral exam. In practical part, student should identify minimally 7 out of 10 slides. Oral exam includes 2 questions (1 histology, 1 embryology). Rules and conditions applicable for practical training and for examining in Histology and Embryology can be found on the website of Department of Histology and Embryology (http://www.med.muni.cz/histology/education).
A necessary condition for admission to exam is to obtain credit from the Histology and Embryology II-practice.
