Electives

[Sparda29]

What kind of electives does your school offer?

Here at Touro we have Medical Media, Bioterrorism, Advanced Psychopharmacology, Parenterals (industrial), Global Health, Nutrition/Alternative Medicine, and Ethnobotany of Medicinal Plants in South America (Peru).

I'm probably doing the Ethnobotany in South America (2-3 week trip in June) and the Bioterrorism.

Too old of a thread.

Too old of a thread.

It is only one year old - I doubt that electives change that much every year.

I meant too old for me to try and look up.

Besides pharmacy electives, we can take virtually any elective in other schools. I am taking a medical school elective that's offered to 2nd year medical students and I'm the only first year non-medical person in the class.

Back in the olden days I took:

1) Food & Nutrition
2) Toxicology
3) Advanced Biochemistry (Biochem of genetic diseases)
4) Advanced spectroscopy.

I've been out of school two years and the only elective I can remember was a ridiculous PDA database class.
