Topic

Pharmacobotany covers all pharmaceutical aspects of botany, including cytology, histology and morphology of plants. Based on their anatomical and morphological knowledge, students will be able to identify and characterize medicinal plant species. The thorough knowledge of both general and specific pharmacobotany is a prerequisite of studying pharmacognosy.

Conditions for acceptance of the semester

Students have to attend at least 75% of classes.
The successful completion of two written tests is compulsory for each student.

Mid-term exams

Students have to pass (min. 60%) two written exams based on lecture materials.

For each test, maximum two other chances (B and C chance) will be offered for students who do not pass the exam on the first occassion (A chance).

Making up for missed classes

Lecture materials are available in MS Teams.
