Toxicology is an interdisciplinary scientific discipline that overlaps biology, chemistry, biochemistry, pharmacology, and medicine. It helps us understand the adverse effects that chemical substances have on living things and the environment. It involves the practice of diagnosing and treating exposures to toxins and toxicants.

The course incorporates the use of case studies to support problem-based and evidence-based learning.
