General Medicine

Medical studies take six years (twelve semesters). For foreign students the
language of the instructions is English. However, foreign students are required to
learn Hungarian in order to be able to communicate with the patients from the third
year on. Those students who are fluent in Hungarian may join the Hungarian
Program of the University. During the first two years the curriculum focuses on
theoretical aspects of medicine that lay the foundation for subsequent medical
subjects.In the 3rd year, disciplines exploring the theoretical foundations of diseases
are offered together with preliminaries of internal medicine and surgery.
In the 4th and 5th years the training in pharmacology begins and that of various
clinical subjects progresses.
During the 6th, final year students take their final examinations in internal medicine,
surgery, gynecology, neurology and pediatrics. Each final exam is preceded by a
two-or three-month internship period. Students in the final year are supposed to
submit a thesis on which they start working as early as in the forth year. The last
academic year is concluded with a comprehensive final state examination when
would-be medical doctors have to prove their competence in the most important
practical and theoretical aspects of general medicine.
Students having passed all examinations and having an accepted thesis are granted
an M.D. degree.
