Learning unit contents

The course of Physiology IV includes the following contents :


  • Digestive and metabolisms physiology
  • Excretion physiology
  • Physiology of vision and hearing (see course VETE 2108).

Learning outcomes of the learning unit

The objective of these lectures is to describe the functioning of the different systems of the body, taking into account the peculiarities of the different species of domestic animals.

Prerequisite knowledge and skills

The pre-requisites are disponible on the study programme.

Planned learning activities and teaching methods

The practices include seminars, demonstrations, interactive video teaching, functional tests and initiation to experimentation. They are compulsory and require a clean lab jacket, and a stethoscope.

Mode of delivery (face-to-face ; distance-learning)

The time schedules of the theoretical and practical teachings are available on the valves and on the website of the faculty. Any change is announced orally and on the university portal.

Recommended or required readings

Adaptation of teaching commitments following the COVID-19 pandemic for the May-June 2020 session

Teaching methods implemented : distance-learning

The entire theoretical course was delivered in accordance with the teaching commitments. The digestive physiology course was given in an amphitheater and the excretion physiology course is given online via the e-Campus platform.
The classic sessions of TD and TP have been replaced by distance learning. Nevertheless, the sessions of TD and TP remain compulsory, even at a distance. The material covered there is part of the examination material, and forums are available on e-Campus to ask your questions. We will check whether everyone has completed the requested tasks and this will help us to determine who should or should not take an oral / practical TP exam (at a distance). Students who do not benefit from the TP / TD oral examination exemption will be notified by email. Each student is therefore asked to log in with their personal identifier, otherwise e-Campus will not record the session.

Assessment subjects

The examination material remains unchanged and includes the material taught during the theoretical course, the TDs and TPs.

Assessment methods

Following the COVID-19 pandemic, the first session evaluations will be carried out remotely in the form of written exams using the "e-Campus" tool. The modalities for the exam are available on the VETE-2106 eCampus site.
