Teaching assignments may be modified during the academic year only by a duly justified decision of the Assembly of the School of Medicine.

The decision on teaching assignments must specify the following information for each instructor:

  • Full Name.
  • Academic or professional status (e.g. faculty member, Laboratory Teaching Staff, visiting professor).
  • Type of teaching activity (course, seminar, or laboratory session).
  • Number of teaching hours allocated to each course, seminar, or laboratory session.
