PATH 741Z Pathology Continuity-Away


Credits: 8
The purpose of this elective is for students to have more in-depth experience in Pathology at an outside institution. Students must make special arrangements with an away institution.

Experience must allow students to maintain continuity in at least 2 of the following 3 ways:

  • Continuity with the same patient population (e.g., similar patients with a specific condition at a different time point in treatment, such as a patient with a newly diagnosed malignancy, another patient who has undergone surgery for the same kind of malignancy, and yet another patient who is undergoing chemotherapy for the same malignancy.)
  • Continuity with the same health system
  • Continuity with the same preceptor(s)


Graded: Pass/No pass
May be repeated for credit
