| Relation to curriculum | Course description: This course covers the physiological functions and integral coordination of the reproductive organs of male and female animals, along with the integrated mechanisms of action of reproductive endocrine glands, which serve as a foundation for the application of reproductive (bio)technology methods, obstetric management, and infertility treatment within the context of animal development and breeding. Relation to curriculum: This course integrates fundamental reproductive physiology with advanced biotechnological methods, preparing students for practical applications in animal breeding and reproductive management across various species, thereby enhancing their clinical expertise in subsequent semesters. |

| Credit points | 3 credit points (equivalent to 4.53 ECTS) |
| Requirements according to the examination regulations | Students must attend a minimum of 80% of classes and submit all assignments before the final exam. |
| Recommended prerequisites | Advanced Veterinary Physiology |
| Module objectives or intended learning outcomes | After completing this course, students should be able to (1) demonstrate a responsible, independent, disciplined, creative, and professional attitude in explaining the physiological functions and integral coordination of the reproductive organs of male and female animals, as well as the integrated mechanisms of action of reproductive endocrine glands, serving as a foundation for the application of reproductive biotechnology methods, obstetric management, and infertility treatment; (2) explain the reproductive processss of male and female animals as the foundation for enhancing fertility and developing reproductive technology processes to increase animal populations and genetic quality; (3) classify reproductive hormones and apply hormonal mechanisms of action in implementing knowledge of veterinary science and livestock management; and (4) demonstrate artificial insemination techniques, explain the importance of embryo transfer methods, cryopreservation, and in vitro fertilization for animal development and breeding. |
