Program description

The aim of the 6MD program is to prepare graduates to practice as doctors by teaching the basic theories and principles of medical practice, communication skills, and patient cooperation, as well as preparing them to be human resources leaders.

The 6MD program is a unified master’s degree that lasts 6 years (12 semesters). The curriculum includes preclinical subjects (basic subjects such as anatomy, medical chemistry, biology with genetics and ecology, biophysics, physiology, histology, pathomorphology, pharmacology) taught mainly in the first three years, and clinical subjects (core subjects such as internal medicine, surgery, pediatrics, neurology, psychiatry, gynecology and obstetrics, dermatology and venereology, infectious diseases) taught in the last three years. The medical curriculum also includes IT and biostatistical preparation, social and humanities subjects such as medical ethics, history of philosophy, sociology, history of medicine, as well as physical education and the study of congress languages. Particular emphasis is placed on developing the proper professional attitudes of graduates, their communication skills with patients, and understanding the psychosocial factors affecting health.

In recent years, thanks to the “Operation Integration” program, the e-learning offer of the program has been significantly expanded, allowing students asynchronous access to all lectures. The structure and content of clinical classes have also been redesigned so that students learn proper clinical reasoning – from symptoms, through diagnostics, to diagnosis, prognosis, and treatment. Related subjects have been combined into coherent modules taught and examined together (e.g. anatomy, histology, cytology, and embryology as the biostructure module).
