Medical studies take six years (ten semesters + 1 year internship).
For foreign students the language of instruction is English. However,
foreign students are required to learn Hungarian in order to be able to
communicate with patients from the third year on. Those students who
are fluent in Hungarian may join the Hungarian Program of the Medical
School.

Students in the final year are required to submit a thesis. The last
academic year is concluded with a comprehensive final state examination
in which the future medical doctors must demonstrate their competence
in the most important practical and theoretical aspects of general
medicine. Students having passed all examinations and having
successfully defended their theses are granted an M.D. degree.
ELECTIVE COURSES
Required elective courses form a part of the undergraduate training in
general medicine. These are, in the Clinical Sciences, based on
clinical reality, and practical issues and aspects of direct patient
care e.g., patient management, therapeutics and diagnostics. For the
Theoretical Sciences these electives are based on aspects of basic
research, social sciences, economic and legal sciences.
