This is an interdisciplinary integrated module of the urinary and reproductive system. Basic sciences of anatomy, physiology, biochemistry, pathology, and pharmacology of the urinary and reproductive system are correlated with a set of clinical disorders of the system. The goal of this integrated course is to provide medical students with comprehensive knowledge about components of the urinary and reproductive system related to clinical manifestations of diseases. The teaching methods include lectures, laboratories, as well as small group discussions of clinically oriented problems to enhance self-directed learning. This knowledge is supported by skills-developing laboratory activities and clinically oriented activities. Research ideas with specific embedded objectives are also included to emphasize social responsibility, evidence-based medicine, community service, and innovatiae thinking.
During the course and whenever relevant the students are exposed to clinical problems to emphasize the explanations of symptoms, signs, investigations and forms of treatments. Practical sessions are planned to be stations around tables to give students the opportunity to expose their knowledge for discussion and confirm concepts learned in lectures. Small group discussions of clinical cases are planned at the end of the course were students are divided into small groups and with the help of an instructor they analyze and discuss the problem .
