Second semester

The aims of second semester are to commence the application of the basic principles of the preceding years to the practice of medicine, and to introduce students to hospital practice. Subjects in this semester will cover infectious diseases, medical genetics and clinical molecular biology, basic and clinical pharmacology and toxicology and health promotion. Bedside teaching in a hospital setting is an important component of clinical and communication skills. Students also undertake an optional study during second semester.
