Pasteurization is a process where they heat milk to a temperature for hot enough or for long enough (145F for 30 min. or 165 for 15 seconds) to kill all the pathogenic (disease causing) bacteria.
Homogonization is a process of breaking up fat globules to become smaller so that they can stay in suspension. It is usually done through some time of filtration pump.
Both processes are done to the milk we buy in the grocery stores, and it's a good thing so that we have safe milk that has the right texture. Pasteurization does not kill all bacteria however which is why milk will still go sour.

Pasteurized milk is milk that has been heated to kill bacteria. My great grandfather had a dairy farm for many years and only ever had 1 person get sick from it being unpasteurized (from the days when it was not required).
Homogenized milk is milk that has been spun or shaken so the milk fat is throughout it instead of the cream rising to the top.

pasteurized milk; Milk that has been exposed briefly to high temperatures to destroy microorganisms and prevent fermentation
homogenized milk; Milk with the fat particles broken up and dispersed uniformly so the cream will not rise

Pasteurization heats the milk to kill bacteria; homogenization blends the milk so the butterfat content doesn't separate from the milk.
