- Medicine
Medical studies take six years (ten semesters + 1 year internship). For foreign students the
language of instruction is English. However, foreign students are required to learn Hungarian in
order to be able to communicate with patients from the third year on. Those students who are
fluent in Hungarian may join the Hungarian Program of the Medical School.
Blocks and subjects
During the first two years the curriculum focuses on theoretical aspects of medicine that lay the
foundation for subsequent medical subjects.

Each final exam is preceded by a two or three month internship period. Students in the final year
are required to submit a thesis. The last academic year is concluded with a comprehensive final
state examination in which the future medical doctors must demonstrate their competence in the
most important practical and theoretical aspects of general medicine. Students having passed all
examinations and having successfully defended their theses are granted an M.D. degree.
ELECTIVE COURSES
Required elective courses form a part of the undergraduate training in general medicine. These are,
in the Clinical Sciences, based on clinical reality, and practical issues and aspects of direct patient
care e.g., patient management, therapeutics and diagnostics. For the Theoretical Sciences these
electives are based on aspects of basic research, social sciences, economic and legal sciences.
