Last update: Jarmila Šindelářová (29.11.2023)

Completion of the practical and theoretical parts with the possibility of one absence. Replacement of missing practices will be possible by agreement of the teacher.     

In the 2023/2024 school year, teaching at the Department of Infectious Diseases and TM will take place in person. 

Full-time teaching will take place at KINCM (Building No. 2 of the University Hospital Bory), in individual departments and in the library according to the schedule.

The in-person exam in infectious medicine consists of a test (to be done on a PC) and an oral exam - by pulling out 2 questions, according to the published list. Preparation time approx. 15 min. For the exam, the student must have writing utensils. During the exam, the student must not have a mobile phone and other unauthorized aids with him/her.
