Pre-Medicine
These are core subjects that may be referenced for further application as you go thru case studies for those that may not have the background in science.
General Biology
From genes to cells, from microbes to humans – you will learn how all the organisms’ function, creating a fascinating system we call life!
This course will lead you through the main concepts of physiology, anatomy and ecology of plants, animals and humans. You will gain the basic grasp of the genetics, evolution theory and microbiology. Through the integration of lectures, self-assessment tests and questionnaires you can complete in your own pace, you will finish the course with the fundamental understanding of key biological principles governing all living organisms.
General Chemistry
You don’t see them, but they are everywhere – chemicals. Chemistry teaches you about the matter – its properties, composition and reactivity. In this course, you will become familiar with methodology, application and scope of modern chemistry. You will learn about the composition of different matters and discover the fascinating world of atoms and all the limitless variation of formations they can create. At the end of the course you will obtain a solid understanding of the molecular theory, thermodynamics and stoichiometry.
Math
“Galileo could see that mathematics is essential not because the paper world of mathematics is more interesting than the sensible world around us, but because the language of mathematics enabled him to read the great book of nature as he called it.” – said Stillman Drak.
The goal of this course is to develop an understanding of key mathematics concepts, linear equations, measurement and geometry basics. You will also learn the most common problem solving techniques, the principals of which you could apply to solving real life situations
Organic Chemistry
As you have learned the fundamental concepts of Chemistry, it’s time to move to the next level and dive into the exciting world of organic bonding.
In this course you will learn about the dynamics, structure and synthesis of various molecular entities and the ways how this knowledge is interpreted in modern theories. The problem solving skills you will gain in regards to organic chemistry can be transferred to problem solving in medicine. You will gain a firm grasp of Stereochemistry, substitution and elimination reactions, spectroscopy and the overall understanding of all major organic chemistry entities including alkenes, alkynes, alcohols, ethers and more.
Health and Medicine
Now you are ready to enter the complex and wonderful world of humans’ health. This course is your first step towards gaining practical knowledge in medical treatment.
The main goal of this course is to make understanding the medical world simpler. You’ll be no longer intimidated by complex medical terms and diagnoses. Together, we’ll walk through the basics of human anatomy and physiology, move to advanced system physiology and learn the most common types of diseases and way to treat them.
General Physics
The world is a complex and fascinating place, as you already know from Biology and Chemistry courses. In this course, you will learn the key laws and principles governing the physical world around us.
This course will provide you with a thorough understanding of the key methods the scientist use to explore and analyze natural phenomena; the fundamental laws of physics and ways to apply the given data in real world situations; and help you develop the mathematical ability to apply formulas and derive correct numerical solutions that could be verified in the real world.
Writing Skills
Master the wordsmith art and polish up your English language skills! English is the international language of science. If you’d like to keep an eye on the innovative medical treatment strategies and latest researches, having a good grasp on the language is a must.
Within the course you’ll extend your medical vocabulary, learn the essential aspects of English punctuation and polite language while strengthening your grammar. The course also includes extensive written assignments to help you master the art of business writing and medical transcription.
Behavioral Science
From principal understanding of the human and animal behavior as individuals to more complex subjects of emotional development and socio-cultural ties in the societies, learning behavioral science is an important step to becoming physicians.
In the scope of this course you will become familiarized with relevant issues in behavioral science including molecular genetics, behavioral evolution, neuroscience among the others. You will be taught to conceptualize patient problems by applying a bio-psycho- social-cultural-spiritual formulation and gain a hands-on approach to applying theoretical material during your real life practice.
