The Credit System

The credit system was introduced in 1994. During their university studies the students have to take some optional subjects. It is the students' choice in which semester they wish to study a given optional subject - with the only restriction that the subject must logically fit into the sequence of all the obligatory subjects.On the basis of the place of the recognized credit courses in the training of doctors, the previous experience, and the quality expectations, a certain number of credit points are assigned to each recognized course. The number of credits may range from 3 to 12. The staff member responsible for the course evaluates each student's performance by giving credits. The points gained by the students may be any integer from zero to the maximum of the course in question.The students must collect 50 credits during the first five years of their academic studies. The student whose grade book does not justify the obtaining of 50 points is excluded from the enrolment in the sixth (last) academic year.
