Consultations are open every Wednesday at 15,00 on the Teams (chat). The credit in Bioethics II is fused together with the definite exam that rests in answering one question randomly picked out of 30 ones available on the institutional website. Both kinds of exam take place on Teams (chat).

 

The classified credit will be awarded after the oral examination either the next week after the course for 12 students or any other week during the academic year for other students always in number up to 3 while the exact day will be appointed on the SIS beforehand. The registration on the SIS is due.

COMMON RULES

 The classified credit will take place in the week after the course for the present group. The dates of examination will be announced in the SIS on Thursday in the week of the course.

 

 

Rules for registration for exams and cancellation

 The start of registration for specific examination dates will be entered in SIS since 17pm in the day of announcing - on Thursday of the course week.

Registration for particular examination dates ("terms") will be possible at the latest 48 hours prior to the date of the exam (excluding weekend days and feasts). Cancellation will be possible at the latest 48 hours prior to the date of the exam  (excluding weekend days and feasts).

Failure to turn up for examination and apology

 The student who fails to turn up for the examination that he/she has registered for cannot register for another examination date (see Regulations, Article 6, Subsection 16, and Rules, Articles 8 and 9).

The student must apologise to the principal teacher of the subject (doc. MUDr. PhDr. Jan Payne, PhD.) in writing or in electronic mail, giving and substantiating the reasons for the apology. The student will be informed about acceptance of the apology and also deleted from the original list so that he/she can register for another date.
