Heads of studies

Heads of studies also participate in the organisation of teaching. They are appointed by the Faculty Council on the dean’s proposal. In agreement with the course coordinators and the scheduler, the heads of studies determine the schedule of lectures, seminars and practicals, supervise the modernisation of study programmes, and harmonise the content and title of elective courses. They participate ex officio in the Section for Learning Outcomes within the Teaching Committee. There are 13 heads of studies at the Faculty of Medicine in Rijeka.
