K2: Has an ability to work in a team in order to fulfil tasks efficiently, and prepares presentations: K_K08
On the basis of the Resolution of the UMCS Senate No. XXIV-27.18 / 19 of May 29, 2019, i.e. from the education cycle
2019/2020
In terms of knowledge the graduate:
W1: has advanced knowledge and understanding of facts, concepts, objects, phenomena, and complex relationships between them as well as explanatory theories, which constitute the basic general knowledge in the area of host – pathogens interactions: K_W01
W2: knows and understands the basic research, laboratory, and field methods and techniques used in host – pathogens interactions: K_W02
W3: has advanced knowledge and understanding of detailed host – pathogens interactions issues including basic processes occurring at the molecular, cellular, and organism levels and the relationships between organisms, their pathogens and anthropogenic factors: K_W04
In terms of skills:
U1: The graduate is able to select data resources properly and conduct critical analysis, assessment, and synthesis of information contained therein to solve problems and perform assigned tasks in the area of host – pathogens interactions: K_U02
U2: is able to carry out host – pathogens interactions analyses with the use of a and to interpret study results and formulate conclusions based on acquired data: K_U04
U3: is able to plan and organize individual and team work aimed at completion of assigned tasks: K_U07
In terms of social competence:
K1: The graduate is ready to assess his/her knowledge and acquired information critically, recognize the importance of general and specialist knowledge in the field of host – pathogens interactions in solving theoretical and practical problems, and seek expert opinions in the case of difficulties independently: K_K02
