Ongoing Orientation
The Degree Course in Medicine and Surgery in English promotes ongoing orientation services aimed at orienting and assisting students during the course of study, to make them actively participate in the training process and to remove obstacles to favor a profitable attendance to teachings and an effective progression in University career.
The President, the tutor professors, the Department's Academic Secretariat, the Career Management and Student Services Division and the Administrative Office of the School of Medicine and Surgery in English are involved in the ongoing orientation activities.
- Tutoring
The Degree Course in Medicine and Surgery in English promotes tutorial activities aimed at guiding and assisting students during the course of study, to make them actively participate in the training process, to recover learning gaps in basic knowledge, to remove obstacles to favor a profitable attendance to courses, to program the personal work plan, to identify a suitable method to face studies and exams and to assist in the choice of the subject area and the teacher to prepare the degree thesis.
The President, teacher tutors, semester and integrated course coordinators are involved in the ongoing orientation activities of the Degree Course.
Tutors fall into one of two distinct categories:
a) personal tutors, i.e., a professor or researcher who provides academic guidance and support to individual students and who, therefore, guides and supports the student throughout their university career. During the first two years of the Degree Programme, personal tutors will be either professors or researchers from pre-clinical departments. From the third to the sixth year, personal tutors will be either professors or researchers from clinical departments, as they will be better equipped to fulfil the role of “counsellor”;
b) course tutors, who carry out tutorial teaching activities with a small number of students as set out in the Degree Programme Table. This type of tutoring is equivalent to a teaching role. Course tutors must coordinate their duties with the teaching activities of courses having the same learning objectives and may also be involved in preparing material for use in tutorials.
