Objectives of Programme's Learning Outcomes

  • In the field of biological sciences and particularly in the field of the biology of organisms and ecology, possess highly specialised and integrated knowledge and a wide range of skills adding to those covered in the Bachelor's programme in biological sciences.
  • Develop and integrate a high degree of autonomy.
    • Pursue further training and develop new skills independently.
  • In the field of biological sciences and particularly in the field of the biology of organisms and ecology, possess highly specialised and integrated knowledge and a wide range of skills adding to those covered in the Bachelor's programme in biological sciences.

Learning Outcomes of UE

The aim of this course is to provide students with advanced notions of structure and function of the different elements of human ocular globes. The last chapter gives a comparative histology of eyes and their evolution among Vertebrates

UE Content: description and pedagogical relevance

Advanced cytological and histological description of human eye components. Functions of the different eye structures and major pathologies affecting human vision. Comparative study of morphology and functions of visual organs in Vertebrates
