Medical Student

Recognition: GDC


Charles University is respected worldwide for its excellence in training. Teaching since 1348, it is one of the oldest educational institutions in Europe and today it is a giant among other Universities.

Individual students are advised to check with their own Medical or Dental Council/Authority to confirm the status of Charles University (also known as Univerzita Karlova). In Britain, the relevant authorities concerning international recognition of Charles University Medical and Dental courses are the General Medical Council (GMC) and the General Dental Council (GDC) respectively.

Dental Degrees: GDC

The 5-year Dental Degree course, taught at Charles University, Faculty of Medicine in Hradec Kralove is recognised world-wide. It is a newly revised course focusing on Dentistry from the 1st academic year, separate from Medical students at a very early stage. This Medical faculty of Charles University in particular has added extra emphasis on Dental Medicine, unlike other Dental courses at other faculties of Charles University.

Graduates of Charles University may need to pass the International Qualifying Examination (IQE) set by the General Dental Council (GDC) of Britain.

This examination assesses the Dental knowledge as well as the English language ability of each applicant. It is important to bear in mind that the Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland and Hungary are now Full Member of the EEA (European Economic Area, including all EU countries). This may enable its graduates to practice in Britain with Full Recognition, without having to sit the IQE.

* Applicants advised to confirm the status of dental schools abroad by contacting the GDC. Contact details are given on the LINKS page.

All Medical/Dental Schools of Charles University in the Czech Republic, regardless of its location, annual tuition fee or length in course, carry equal standards in quality of teaching and recognition

Medical school and dental school entrance is not an easy task. Many UK medical schools and dental schools receiver many applications to study medicine or study dentistry and places are very limited. Many medical schools and dental schools in the UK and medical schools and dental schools in Europe conduct medical interviews after receiving an application for medical or dental school via UCAS. Therefore, the preparation of a UCAS application form for medical or dental school is very important. Online Medical and Dental forums are an excellent way to exchange views and ideas on what medical schools are looking for and which medical and which dental schools actually ask the toughest interview questions and which medical and dental schools actually interview prospective medical students and prospective dental students at all. The premed course is an excellent way to secure a place at a UK medical schools in the UK or medical schools based abroad. To study medicine or study dentistry outside the UK does not require an applicant to go via UCAS. Medical and dental school applicants are strongly advised to get as much work experience and possible. Medical conferences and dental conferences consist of a series of medical seminars and dental seminars at a hospital based in England.Charles University in Prague, medical and dental schools in the Czech Republic and medical and dental schools in Poland are now very attractive options to aspiring medical and dental students.
