Tematika

One of the objectives of the course is to present the epidemiology of non-communicable diseases of public health importance, highlighting primary and secondary prevention options.

The second objective is to introduce the basics of occupational medicine and the main risk factors in the work environment, and to discuss the prevention of occupational diseases.

On completion of Preventive Medicine 5, students will sit an oral examination covering all the material from all the preventive medicine subjects.
