During the first three years, students focus on theoretical disciplines such as anatomy, biophysics, medical biology, medical genetics, histology, embryology, physiology, medical chemistry and biochemistry, and medical microbiology. The following programme continues with pre-clinical disciplines like pathological physiology, immunology, pathological anatomy, and pharmacology.

Clinical propaedeutics start in the second year, and clinical education continues with the start of internal medicine studies in the third year.<br>The fourth year is oriented mainly toward clinical disciplines, but also includes preventive medicine, public health, and medical law. A block system of instruction for specialised clinical disciplines takes place in the fifth year. During the sixth year, the student acquires deeper practical skills in clinical departments and outpatient clinics.<br>The graduate of the General Medicine programme acquires the academic title MUDr. (Medicinae Universae Doctor).
