The first part of the course is taken up with a study of the human mechanism from the standpoint of anatomy and physiology, followed by a careful consideration of the laws of personal hygiene. The cause, nature, history and home treatment of the common diseases are briefly studied, special attention being paid to those of a contageous and infectious nature. With this as a foundation the student takes up a thorough study of domestic and public sanitation.
