Master's in MedicineAdd to shortlist
Programme profile
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.
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, as well as the preliminaries of internal medicine and surgery are taught. In the 4th and 5th years training in pharmacology begins and the study of clinical subjects continues.
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.
