      The goalTo acquire knowledge on various zoonosis, etiology, distribution, ecology factors that influence occurrence, maintaining as well as spreading, contagious index, risk analysis, methods for the control and eradication.
      The outcomeAfter completion of the course, student should know how to define basic epizootical and epidemiological determinants, to understand importance of the following certain parameters that are important for the spread, control and eradication of the enzootics and epidemics. To understand interrelationship between ecology elements and zoonosis, to formulate epizootic models and health schemas, to analyze risk ant to understand potentials of the bioterrorism and protection from it.
