Information about Internal Medicine I
The subject is composed from theoretical lectures, seminars and clinical practicals.
Practicals are run on wards of Internal Clinic.
Start of lectures and practicals is specified in time schedule.
Students may check which meeting room/ward is assigned to their class:
• SIS
• on a noticeboard on the floor 4D (in front of secretariat of Internal clinic)
The education of 5 blocks will end with a credit test, the dates will be announced in SIS. The test has open-ended questions for free writting. To successfully completed test must have more than 75% of the answers correct, i.e. more than 7.5 points. The results will be written in SIS.
