Prerequisite or corequisite units are presented within each program
Learning unit contents
This learning unit includes 4 weeks of practical activities : radiology (1 week), clinical biology (1 week) and infectiology and parasitology (2 weeks). The program is detailed in each sub-unit.
Clinical Biology
Medical imaging
The teaching will include radiology of small animal, production animal and equidae.
Previous knowledge will be tested on Monday morning.
During the week, students will mainly work on eCampus and interactive feed-back sessions will be organized everyday.
Infectiology and veterinay parasitology
The students participate interactively in (1) clinical case presentations, (2) practical work on the modalities of sampling and diagnostic tools, and (3) seminars on specific topics prepared by the different services
Learning outcomes of the learning unit
see details for each sub unit
Clinical Biology
Medical imaging
The main objective of the teaching activity is to stimulate the students to image analysis through interaction with the teachers.
Specific objectives are:
- be able to identify normal anatomical structures
- be able to recognize and name the radiographic views
- be able to criticize the radiographic technique
- give a solid base of radiographic image analysis before applying knowledge to clinical cases film readings.
Infectiology and veterinay parasitology
Training focuses on case studies and seminars on specific topics. The aim is to teach students to adopt a transversal approach in the diagnosis, prevention and control of infectious and parasitic animal

Planned learning activities and teaching methods
see details for each sub unit
Clinical Biology
Medical imaging
Autonomous work with interactive feed-back and correction between 8.30 and 12 A.M
Mode of delivery (face to face, distance learning, hybrid learning)
Each sub-unit organizes face-to-face seminars and practical work as well as distance learning sessions.
Medical imaging
The teaching is hybrid and includes a self-learning part by the sudent and a feed-back. The feed-back will be delivered in presence or on-line depending on the sanitary conditions.
Infectiology and veterinay parasitology
Organisation : 2 consecutive weeks with 2 modules every morning. The full program is presented to students during the introductory session on Monday of the first week. The case studies, practical work and seminars are taught by different services : immunology, vaccinology, epidemiology, virology, bacteriology, parasitology, mycology and pathology of wildlife. Students are invited to prepare a presentation. This work is presented on Friday of the second week.
Organisational adjustments related to the current health context
Each sub-unit organizes the seminars and case studies by distance learning via BlackBoard Collaborate or Lifesize (eCampus) depending on sanitary conditions and ease of organization
Medical imaging
Feed-back will be given in presence or on-line depending on the conditions.

Assessment methods and criteria
Below you will find information on the evaluation methods planned for in-person and remote exams as well as those planned for hybrid sessions. Depending on how the health crisis evolves, the chosen method will be communicated to you no later than one month before the start of the exam session.
The overall evaluation is balanced as follows: Clinical Biology (25%), Radiology (25%) and infectiology and parasitology (50%). There is no absorbent note in case of failure of one of the 3 sub-units. If the overall evaluation is not validated, the student will represent the sub-unit(s) where he/she failed.
Clinical Biology
no formal examination
Medical imaging
Participation and reflection will be evaluated throughout the week.
Any absence must be justified with Dominique Rumeau (d.rumeau@ulg.ac.be, 04/3664180).
Any absence must be discussed with Valeria Busoni and retaken.
Infectiology and veterinay parasitology
Students are evaluated on their participation in paraclinical activities and during the examination of Friday of the second week. This examination consists of (1) a written part (individual): responding to a question about one of the seminars (or TP) presented during the two weeks and (2) an oral part (in pairs): present and defend a work whose subject has been chosen by the students during the introductory session
