About the courseRecognizing the increasing importance of a good foundation knowledge of infectious diseases in order to cope
with the ever-changing landscape of infection control, we have revised and expanded our programme to provide three modules that include (but are not limited to) the following topics: emerging and re-emerging diseases,
outbreaks of infectious disease, tropical diseases and the global crisis of antimicrobial resistance. Module 1 aims to facilitate the understanding of the aetiology, transmission mechanisms and pathogenesis of common infectious
agents in healthcare settings and the community. Module 2 will enhance students’ awareness of infection control concepts and current guidelines on infection prevention and control. Module 3 will address advances in infectious
disease prevention and will include topics such as: handling weapons of mass destruction; simulation training for infectious-disease nursing; mathematical modelling for infection control; and research in infection control and infectious
disease prevention. Don’t miss this opportunity to learn from the leading experts in the field of infectious diseases and infection control in Hong Kong.
* Subject to individual topic arrangement, the time of schedule may vary.# Applicable to existing students of the Master of Science in Infection Control only.
