Basic tasks
The basic tasks of the Division are to work out the structure of teaching languages at the Faculty as well as to provide lessons and prepare our students for passing the language exam which is necessary for them to obtain their degree. The English or German courses are compulsory for the students who gained admission to the Faculty of Health in 2015 or the following years, unless they held the language exam certificate required in the training programme.
The Dean of the Faculty of Health highlights the importance of language learning, therefor the number of lessons within the framework of language learning has risen.
General English and German courses:
Professional English and German courses
Besides the compulsory courses we also offer optional ones with 28 lessons per semester to target either the oral or the written part of the language exam.
Latin is a compulsory course during the first 2 semesters. Its aim is to provide the necessary medical terminology for the students to make it easier to acquire Anatomy and other professional subjects relying heavily on Latin.
The regulations concerning language learning can be found in the Study and Exam Regulations:
A DE tanulmányi és vizsgaszabályzata
In teaching the professional languages we use the study-books written by the language teachers of the division of Foreign Languages. Certain materials were written for the project of TÁMOP-4.1.2.D-12/1/KONV-2012-0008 "SZAK-NYELV-TUDÁS”.
Further activities
Two or three times a year we organize language exams for the LEXINFO Language Exam Centre. The interlocutors are our English language teachers.
