Features and aims of the course
During this 6-year cycle students will be trained to become empathetic, compassionate and competent physicians. They will learn how to take a person-centered approach to healthcare, considering patients, in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, as individuals with their own unique needs and characteristics. The course will equip students with the essential knowledge, understanding, skills and attitudes to practice medicine competently and professionally. The extensive hands-on experience will stimulate decision-making in clinical practice on using health strategies for preventive, diagnostic, curative and rehabilitative care. The course places great emphasis on the development of good communication skills, which are essential in dealing with patients and their families.

STRENGTHS OF THE COURSE
This degree course has a practical and vocational approach (AFP) from the 1st to the 6th year with a combination of classwork, laboratory activities and extensive hands-on clinical experience. The latter increases as students go through the course.
In order to become registered and licensed physicians, students need to complete a Clinical Placement (TPVES) and pass a national exam.
The course offers Erasmus projects as part of our exchange programmes.
We are presently working on the development of a new Medicine Degree Course which will be delivered in the English language.
