Course content

Semester IID for foreign students (MD4041) is identical with semester IID for norwegian medicine students (MD4043) with English as the teaching language. The teaching includes the following topics: obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, child and adolescent psychiatry, endocrinology, nephrology, urology, radiology/imaging, global health, infectious diseases, pharmacology and pathology. The teaching is organised in thematic weeks. Lectures, clinics, seminars and courses are given on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays. Clinical teaching and PBL (problem based learning) are given wednesdays and thursdays. In addition to the respective clinical departments, other departments and institutes are also integrated in the teaching. All students (except foreign students) will, during autumn in the 4th year, chose their theme for their main thesis, get a supervisor and deliver a protocol before November 15th (for Norwegian students abroad there are other dates). See also semester IIIA.

Learning outcome

There are several learning objectives related to the semester subjects. These objectives are printed in the "studiehåndbok", for translations; see Semesterhandbook.

Learning methods and activities

Teaching methods are problem-based learning (PBL), lectures, clinics, seminars, demonstrations, courses, clinical teaching on rotation in the university hospital and skills laboratories.
PBL and clinical teaching (uketjeneste) is mandatory. A maximum of 15% absence is allowed.

Further on evaluation

If the students don't pass IID in the autumn semester, they are allowed to continue in IIC in the following spring semester (most relevant for the Norwegian students). Resit exam will go on in august (included foreign students). The students who do not pass the exam will have to resit only the part of the exam they did not pass, i.e. either the oral or the written exam (or both). The foreign students will be given marks for the exam as letters A, B, ... to F according to international standard with A as the best mark and F for failure.
