Requirements to the exam

Last update: Eva Dyntarová (12.09.2023)

Practical classes are held at the Department of Microbiology in the University Hospital building 17, 1^st floor

a) Practical classes

Practical classes are mandatory. Each student is allowed one absence due to relevant reasons, which has to be justified within 48 hours to the group teacher.  In case of more than one justified absence, the sudent has to write a thesis on a topic selected by the teacher with  5 pages A4 length minimum.

 b) Protocols

Protocols need to be properly written and are part of the credit. The forms for protocols are available on Moodle.

 c) Theoretical knowledge

The students have to pass a credit test on Moodle. There are 20 questions and the minimum for passing is 70% correct answers (80% for the pre-term exams). Each student has two attempts and, in case of failing both, an essay will be required for the credit.

Examination

The students, who received the credit, can register for the exam. The final exam is oral. The dates of the exams are available in SIS and Moodle. Students can sign up for a particular date in SIS

It is strictly forbidden to use any personal electronic devices during any type of examination (credit test, final exam). In case the student is caugt not obeying these rules, the exam is classified as „Fail“. The same rule aplies also when student communicates with others during the testing or preparation for the final exam. The students are not allowed to leave the preparation room after selecting the qustions for the final exam.
