Students have to learn specialized microbiology and guidlines for effective anti-microbial therapy. In their written thesis they should provide ability to study in depth from different information sources and comprehensively summarize and explain knowledge obtained.
During practicals they learn diagnostics algorithm used in a routine laboratory for investigation of infectious agent and make familiar with routine tests. |

I. CREDIT REQUIREMENTS 1. Lectures - Attendance is not compulsory, but please register it via ISIC readers in the lecture hall. If you attend 10 of 14 lectures at least you do not need to pass a final credit test. The optional credit test will review the knowledge from the lectures only (PC room, Moodle-based, 30 MCQs for 36 minutes, evaluated percentually, 60 % at least needed to pass, 3 attempts available, credit week primarily). 2. Attendance at the laboratory week. A single day absence due to serious reasons only (illness, injury, VISA issues) can be tolerated, please discuss the matter with your class supervisor in advance. In such case the student must learn the content of the missing lesson – the knowledge will be checked by the teacher. 3. Laboratory protocols. Write down the workflows and results obtained during the processing of individual materials. It is checked by the teacher during the practical lessons. In the end of the week, students report orally on the results of their identification experiments based on the protocols. 4. Seminar work. Within the scope of Microbiology 1+2, the topic is chosen by the student himself/herself, the thesis should contain a theoretical ("textbook") introduction to the topic and, above all, a new knowledge from scientific or medical sources (e.g. new epidemiological data, therapeutic and preventive procedures, novel knowledge about known or new infectious agents, interesting clinical cases, etc.).
NON-COMPLETION OF THE PRACTICAL WEEK IN JUSTIFIED CASES: The student may be moved to a substitute week. This option is quite extraordinary, and each application will be strictly controlled. The application shall be sent to the tibor.mosko@lf1.cuni.cz and shall be approved by the Head of the Institute. Credits will be awarded by the practical labs’ supervisors in the credit week after passing all the above-listed tests and duties.
