病理科学学士

疾病是生命的一部分，是死亡的一部分。不久前，我们还不知道大多数常见疾病的根本原因，因此还有很多东西要学习。通过从各个角度看待疾病：分子，细胞，组织，功能，生化和免疫学，发现病理学如何迅速发展。利用前沿医学研究和对人类生物学和分子遗传学的最新理解来了解疾病背后的机制。您可能最终会在生物技术实验室进行诊断病理学，或者完成疾病研究或医学病理学专业的进一步研究。
Pathology is the scientific study of the nature of disease and its causes, processes, development, and consequences. It is a branch of science where factors which influence the shift from normal to abnormal and back again are studied at every level from the whole organism to the molecule. Therefore it overlaps with a range of biomedical disciplines such as anatomy, cell biology, biochemistry and molecular biology, microbiology and immunology and genetics. The study of Pathology will provide students with background knowledge which will enable them to ask fundamental questions about the response of tissues and cells to injury, mechanisms of healing and the outcomes which may occur when healing is unsuccessful. Students who complete a Pathology major will study findings emerging from research laboratories which are currently investigating some of the most common and intractable diseases in our community e.g. cardiovascular disease, autoimmune disease, neurodegenerative disease and cancer. A Pathology major will also give students the opportunity to experience working in a team on an investigative project and enable them to develop both verbal and written communication skills.
