The 1st Faculty of Medicine, Charles University, in cooperation with the General Hospital, has opened a new study program in General Nursing. It thus responds to the lack of general nurses in clinical operations. The three-year study program prepares qualified nurses with a university degree for practice. Applicants from grammar schools, secondary medical schools, but also from any other secondary school with a high school diploma can apply to study.

During the course, students will be in contact with the largest capacities in the field and with the most modern technologies and equipment.
