The goal		Acquisition of skills in all conventional, automatic and serological methods of laboratory diagnostics of bacterial, viral, fungal and parasitic infections of animals.
The outcome		Students should learn how to choose the appropriate diagnostic methods depending on specimen type. They should also know how to readily apply the chosen methods and to prepare culture media; to perform sterilization and interpret the obtained results.
