Teaching methods
because of the current pandemics, the course will be held on-line by means of the Teams platform. Students will be provided with a link to Teams on the Elly platform when they subscribe to the course. The link will lead them to several videos depicting clinical cases of the major psychiatric disorders, as well as to daily group discussion with the staff of the Psychiatry Unit regarding the content of the videos. When the epidemiological context will allow that, students will attend in-person the in-patient, out-patients and Day-Hospital facilities of the Psychiatric Unit.
Assessment methods and criteria
Final interview (included in the final examination).
