  • Pravidla a podmínky pro vytváření studijních plánů

    Bakalářské a magisterské studium probíhá podle celouniverzitního kreditního systému, který je v souladu s pravidly European Credit Transfer System (ECTS). Povinně volitelné předměty jsou ve studijním plánu organizovány do jedné čí více skupin; student volí povinně volitelné předměty na základě stanoveného minimálního počtu kreditů v každé skupině.

    Na Masarykově univerzitě došlo k celouniverzitnímu konsensu na pravidlech pro tvorbu studijních programů, které zpřesňují pravidla vymezená v metodice Národního akreditačního úřadu Doporučené postupy pro přípravu studijních programů. Pravidla pro tvorbu studijních programů byla schválena ve stejnojmenné směrnici MU (Směrnice MU č. 11/2017: Pravidla pro tvorbu studijních programů) a vymezují šest typů studijních plánů a jejich použití a kombinace v jednotlivých typech studijních programů. Jedná se o 

    1. jednooborový studijní plán,
    2. studijní plán se specializací,
    3. hlavní studijní plán (maior),
    4. vedlejší studijní plán (minor),
    5. studium podle dvou hlavních studijních plánů,
    6. plán na dostudování (určen pouze studentům z obdobného studijního oboru, kterému zaniká akreditace).

    Premisou pravidel je, že studijní plány umožňují naplnění cílů studia a dosažení profilu absolventa studijního programu. Výjimkou je pouze vedlejší studijní plán, který slouží jako komplementární doplněk hlavního studijního plánu jiného studijního programu. Student nemůže studovat pouze podle vedlejšího studijního plánu.

  • Praxe

    The obligatory part of the program is a professional practice and according to the law the bachelor study must include at least 1 600 h. Student of the Physiotherapy program at the Faculty of Medicine MU has a total of 1,872.5 hours of practice, which consists of exercises and 12 weeks of continuous professional practice.

    The teaching of practical skills of specific subjects is distributed in each year in specialized subjects.

    The practical skills of the first year are focused on the teaching of investigation and treatment methods on healthy individuals - listeners. This means that in a small group the students acquire manual skills, knowledge of the techniques of investigating the systems of the locomotive system and its tissues; they also apply motion therapy, general and reflex massage, special techniques (ball training) and physical therapy. For manual experience, they work under the guidance of the teacher with the patient.

    The second-year student applies the skills acquired in the first year in patients, he also practices new skills and movement therapy. He studies clinical trials, therapeutic procedures in patients and their methodical rehabilitation methods - therapeutic physical education at the patient's bed with surgical, traumatological, orthopedic, internal and neurological diseases. Furthermore, he is familiar with functional disorders in patients and treatment of functional disorders of the musculoskeletal system using "soft techniques".

    The third year student applies the skills acquired in 1st and 2nd year at the patient's bed - examination of the locomotor system, kinesiological analysis, therapeutic procedures in patients. Special techniques (eg Kabat, Bobath) and their use are demonstrated at the patient's bed, the listener can be directly acquainted with the effectiveness of the treatment procedures in the indicated patients.

    The bachelor will apply the practical skills of a particular disease and patient; the result of practical skills is written in case studies as part of a bachelor's thesis. In the final state examination, the practical skills must be shown before a SZZ by a commission to a particular patient.

  • Cíle kvalifikačních prací

    The standard bachelor's thesis range from 72,000 to 90,000 characters, including the cover letter, content, index, list of literature and annotations.
