Online Pathophysiology

Are you sure about Rio? I was told you just have to complete bio 202 to take it (the 4 credit class, anyway). And that is also what it says on the course schedule. The two-2 credit classes are the ones only available to nursing students, from my understanding.

Here is the descriptiono of the 4 credit class.

HCR 240 - Human Pathophysiology

(See Complete Syllabus when you register)

Length Of Course

14 Weeks

Course Description

Chemical, biological, biochemical, and psychological processes as a foundation for the understanding of alterations in health. The structural and functional pathophysiology of alterations in health; selected therapeutics considered.

Prerequisites: BIO202 or equivalent.

University of Wyoming is offering it this spring http://ecampus.uwyo.edu/index.real?action=Catalog&sem=12858&node=8216

Looks like I have some options here.

You are right about Rio, I called to confirm what you were saying. The weird thing is it's listed under the Nursing department, but uses course prefix HCR for health care related.

And thanks for the info on U of Wyoming as well. Thanks for the quick help!

Also try University of Iowa there Patho class is non-semester based:

I would check with your school before trying to take it somewhere else and then transferring it. Some schools will teach patho as a nursing or healthcare course and other schools teach it as a biology course (usually more difficult).

Yep, the school I'm attending only requires the 3 credit hour patho variety, whereas most only accept the 4 credit hour.

Look, go to the prerequisite web page for Samuel Merrit college. they have compiled a great list for patho courses and most are online.
