Attendance in learning activities is mandatory; the minimum attendance requirement to be admitted to the final exam is 60% of lessons. For Integrated Courses (IC), the 60% attendance requirement refers to the total amount of I.C. lessons. Students who fail to meet the minimum attendance requirement will not be admitted to the final exam of the course and will have to attend relevant classes again during the next academic year.
Professors may authorize excused absences upon receipt of proper justifying documentation, in case of illness or serious reasons. Excused absences do not count against a student’s attendance record to determine their minimum attendance requirement.
Teaching tools
Suture and arterial line simulators.
We will provide slides (.PDF format).
I will ask you to get two ball of cotton or wool crochet thread (one blue and red) for the dry lab practice and few bananas for part of the wet lab.
