BIO1025 MEDICAL TERMINOLOGY - ONLINE
Instructor: Dr. Jerry Beilby
Credits: 2

This is a concise, introductory course that will provide practice in the definition of and use of medical terms. The emphasis will be on understanding the meanings of terms by analyzing their various parts rather than solely on the simple memorization of large, complex terms.
