Programme profile

The programme in Medicine, taught through English, was established in 1993.

There are two programmes available: a 6-year programme for high school graduates and a 4-year programme for college/university graduates. At the end of each programme the graduates are awarded the MD degree and receive a medical diploma recognised in the European Union, USA, Canada and most other countries of the world .Having completed the basic science part of the study programme, the students are eligible to sit for the USMLE (United States Medical Licensing Examination) Step I and for the USMLE Step II on completion of the clinical part of the programme.

As far as the assessment of the students` achievements is concerned, the theoretical knowledge of students is checked in the form of tests during the modules or/and written/oral exams at the end of modules. The learning process of the students is supervised by the teaching staff during the whole modules. Practical/clinical skills are regularly evaluated during each module, and at the end of the module, in the form of assignments.

Basic science and pre-medical training is provided in the form of lectures, seminars and practical classes by more than 70 departments and clinics of the university or affiliated to the university. Clinical training facilities at affiliated hospitals are regularly evaluated in order to ensure the effectiveness and high quality of clinical training.
