    Course DescriptionPathophysiology is a medical science concerning the etiology and pathogenesis of diseases, as well as the mechanisms of functional and metabolic alterations in diseases. It provides a link between the sciences of anatomy, physiology, biochemistry and clinical practice. Emphasis is placed on the mechanisms and concepts of most commonly encountered diseases and disorders to the human body. Selected lectures include fever, hypoxia, stress, shock, disturbances of hemostasis, abnormal cell proliferation and differentiation, heart failure, etc. These may provide awareness of possible implications for certain aspects of diseases, current scientific advances and therapeutic options. The course aims to enable students to apply scientific reasoning skills to the study of human diseases.

    Course DescriptionThe main content of Material Stryctural Chemistry is the relationship between the chemical composition of materials and properties, which plays a fundamental and important role in materials science. The lecture focuses on the basic concepts including electron behavior (wave-particle duality), atomic structure, chemical bonding (including primary bonding and secondary bonding), Valence bond theory (hybridization theory) and Molecular bond theory to understand the relationship between materials from atom to crystal structures. Through the study of this course, students will have a clear and overall understanding of the impact of material structure and performance, and master the basic theories and research methods in the process of designing and developing materials, which will help students to lay a solid foundation for basic theoretical knowledge to understand and study structure and property of different species of materials.
