In the practical part, students participate in the routine medical care of the patient under the supervision of qualified physicians.

During the rotating training scheme, students work at the admission of internal patients and at the departments of internal medicine (department of cardiology, pneumology, gastroenterology, hepatology, nefrology, diabetology and endocrinology, hematology and intensive care unit). This practice can be done in any hospital with the entire spectrum of internal medicine and with unselectited acute admission from the service area. In the seminars, held by senior teachers or professors, lectured subspecialties of internal medicine are discussed. Final state exam: multiple-choice test, practical and oral examination.

Knowledge of propedeutics and previous years' examined material is required for entry to the course. A strong emphasis will be placed on practical knowledge. In the practical part, clinical practice in hospitals outside Prague is preferred.
1. teaching schedule: The course lasts 12 weeks with the following schedule: the first two weeks of compulsory seminars in internal medicine; eight weeks of clinical practice (internship); one week for exam preparation and credit with the practical part of state exam; the last week is reserved for the oral state exam in internal medicine.
2. Compulsory seminars: The compulsory seminars will be conducted in attendance form from 9:00 to 11:45 a.m. and from 12:30 to 3.15 p.m. each day (a total of 6 teaching hours per day) throughout the first two weeks of the Internal Medicine block, according to a schedule designed to cover the basic problems of the specialty. Topics not covered in the face-to-face seminars may be available online for self-study. During the seminars, students may request clarification from the lecturers on specific Internal Medicine exam questions that are not sufficiently clear to them. At the introduction seminar, students will receive information and documents including a seminar schedule, a logbook (a syllabus of skills to be learned during the internship) and letters to the heads or chiefs of the internal medicine departments where the internship will take place.
3. Clinical practice (internship): The practical part of the training (3rd-10th week of the block) should be arranged by each student on his/her own in the hospital according to his/her interest. Each student will report the chosen hospital (where he/she has arranged the internship) to the Secretary, Chair of Internal Medicine. Internships in hospitals outside Czech Republic (i.e. in any country, where the students are able to fluently communicate with patients – e.g. students home country) are preferred. When students of the English curriculum plan to arrange the 8-weeks internship in the Czech Republic, such students should be able to speak at least basic Czech with the patients. The chosen hospital should be a large or medium-sized hospital with major internal medicine specialties and with unselected acute admission of patients from the catchment area, the hospital must also have an internally oriented intensive care unit or coronary care unit. Practice is not permitted in small hospitals that do not have a non-selected acute admission and have no intensive care unit. The period of 8 weeks may be spent in different institutions, provided that no period of less than two weeks is spent in any of them.
During this internship, the student will work under supervision on the ward in a similar way to a junior doctor preparing for the internal medicine examination, i.e. an average of 8 hours per day (including possible attendance at emergency services in the outpatient department). He/she will participate in morning report, grand rounds, X-ray rounds or other seminars. Under supervision, performs rounds in assigned room, actively reports on patients during rounds. All entries made by the student in the medical record must be legibly signed by the student and must always be seen by the attending or supervising physician. The student does not prescribe therapy or examinations himself/herself, but only suggests them to the attending physician. He or she participates in diagnostic and therapeutic considerations and also takes part in autopsies.
