Course description
During Veterinary Pharmacology 1, students learn the basics of general pharmacology, and the theoretical and practical aspects of the usage of several drug groups (organotropic agents). Regarding practical aspects, we aim to develop students’ first day skills for successful and prudent drug use in the most common veterinary cases. We put strong emphasis on educating pharmacology based on the recommendations of the current international guidelines and scientific articles, furthermore, through this approach, we encourage students for lifelong learning and the usage of relevant scientific literature. Legal, ethical and public health aspects of veterinary drug usage are also covered by the subject. Furthermore, during practicals, students learn to write prescriptions and can study different drug administration routes and the handling of animals.

Evaluation description
I N F O R M A T I O N
VETERINARY PHARMACOLOGY in English, Fall semester, Academic year 2020/2021
Students will be hereby informed that the prevalent qualification system and requirements in subject “Veterinary Pharmacology” for the fall semester are as follows:
- For completing the semester it is obligatory:
Regular visiting of the lectures (taking into account the current epidemiological regulations)
Successful performance on all practical lectures (laboratory courses) and successful completion of the two midterm tests (taking into account the current epidemiological regulations)
The acceptance of the semester is certified by the signature of the authorized lecturer. More than five weeks of absence in a semester results in an automatic exclusion from the semester (cf. Student’s guide).
- Practical
Attendance on the practicals should be performed taking into account the current epidemiological regulations.
The attendance on all labs is obligatory
Wearing a lab coat is obligatory on the labs
The names of students will be checked by the practical leader, and in addition, students will prove their appearance with their signature
Missed practicals have to be retaken (at the end of the semester)
Students have to be able to answer questions about the topic of former and actual practical satisfactory either verbal or written (several small tests will be written during the practicals). Date of these tests is included in the semester’s schedule. The students will receive a grade based on their performance. For acceptance, the average of these test grades should be at least satisfactory (>60%) and it will be used for the calculation of practical mark (see point 4. below). Retake of failed small tests is not possible.
According to the current epidemiological situation, there are no possibility for attending different practical groups during the semesters.
Retake of missed practicals will take place at the end of the semester on a date previously discussed with the lab teacher.
- Midterm tests
Dates, forms, and times of two midterm tests are given in the detailed Practical Topic List. Minimum acceptance level of completion is 60.5% of the maximal scores. Failed or missed midterm tests can be retaken during the semester only once. If the student cannot attend in the retake midterm, it will be accepted as a failed test.
- At the end of the fall semester the students will be evaluated by marks as follows:
excellent (5) – ≥ 90%
good (4) – ≥ 80%
medium (3) – ≥ 70%
satisfactory (2) – > 60%
unsatisfactory (1) – ≤ 60%
The final grades will be based on the results of two midterm tests and the small tests during practical[1]. If any of the three grades is unsatisfactory, the semester will not be accepted. In this case the student should take examination about the topics of the whole semester. Without this successful retake exam the acceptance of the semester will not be certified by the signature of the head of department.

[1] Calculation: average of the practicals (small tests) will be calculated, this will make 1/3 of the final practical mark. The other 2/3 will be the grades of the two midterms. Finally, the average of the practicals + two midterms will be calculated.
