A study of classical desserts, French and international pastries, hot and cold desserts, ice creams and ices, chocolate work, and decorations. Emphasis on advanced techniques.

Students train with pathologists who provide a wide spectrum of pathology cyto-, dermato-, hemato-, and neuropathology; chemical pathology; forensic pathology; and pediatric pathology. The experience may include inpatient and surgical operating room consultations, and rotations in the medical microbiology specimens, attend pathology rounds, attend surgical procedures when requested, attending physician to reason through a differential diagnosis for a wide range

Provides an in-depth study of pathophysiologic processes across the lifespan to correlate changes that occur at the cellular and system level with the development, clinical manifestations, and management of various disease states. NSG 6672 Teaching and Learning Theories in Nursing Education (3) Introduces the basic principles and theories of education and their impact on student learning.

To progress to this course, all previous coursework counting towards the graduate or doctoral nursing degree must be completed with a grade of "B" or better. This course provides an advanced, systems-based exploration of normal human physiological function in relation to physiological changes that occur as a result of disease. This includes advances in genetics, immunology, and molecular biology. Offered spring term only.

This course expands student understanding of the pathophysiology, underlying dysfunctions, and interrelatedness of the processes of normal physiology and pathophysiology across the continuum of disease and return to wellness for advanced nursing practice. Applications will be made utilizing lifespan perspectives of the process.

This course is designed to expand on the previous knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and developmental disease processes. Physiological alterations, as they affect individuals across the lifespan, are reviewed with an introduction of diagnostic reasoning as it relates to disease manifestations.

The purpose of this course is to provide the student with an opportunity to build upon existing knowledge of basic physiology. The focus of this course is on the analysis and application of principles of anatomy and physiology. The emphasis is placed on the use of critical thinking to apply physiologic principles in explaining adaptations to pathogenic changes in the systems across the lifespan.

This course incorporates the application of advanced pathophysiology concepts across the lifespan. It broadens the concepts of assessment findings and diagnostic testing for specific health issues, utilizing clinical judgment for expected variations in disease presentations.

This course will provide the radiographer with concepts of patient care including patient preparation, patient education, assessment and monitoring, IV procedures for contrast agents and medications, pharmacology, emergency care, radiation safety and biological considerations, safety precautions, and general procedural considerations for CT, MRI, Mammography, Cardiovascular Interventional Technology and Diagnostic Medical Sonography.

This course provides opportunities to apply fundamental knowledge of basic and selected advanced emergency care and transportation based on assessment findings for the following: an acutely ill patient; a patient in shock, respiratory failure or arrest, cardiac failure or arrest, and post resuscitation management; and an acutely injured patient.
