doc. MUDr. Petr Zoban, CSc.
Vice-Dean for the Clinical Disciplines
 

1. He informed the academic senate about the attachment to the diploma that will be added to the diploma to graduates this year. The attachment is issued by the Rector.
2. There was a competition for the study stay in the USA specialized in haematology and oncology – two students were selected.
3. The Faculty websites will inform on the offer for the course in oncology for students in Belgium. The offer is intended for the 5th and 6th year students.

 
Doc. Hrušák informed the senate about preparation of the internet system of voting (elections, teaching evaluation etc.). For the time being, the system will be prepared for the members of the senate, gradually it will be open to the whole academic community. The teachers will register themselves with a special personal number. The registration of students will be more complicated; there exist two possibilities – either the registration via the number of their students cards or birth identification number. The registration system for students will be further discussed at the study department.

 
Lenka Machoňová mentioned the fact of the concurrence of Pathology and Pharmacology. There was a proposal to solve this problem

1. to shift the teaching of Pharmacology to the summer semester of the 3rd year and winter semester of the 4th year
2. to allow the students of the present 3rd year to take the examination in Pharmacology in the winter semester of the 4th year (it is necessary to check whether legislation permits such an exception and discuss it in the frame of the Dean´s college)
    

 
Doc. Hrušák described the present state of the wage and personnel policy at the Faculty. The wages represent 76% expenses of the Faculty´s budget. For the ability of the Faculty to compete it is necessary to raise the wages of the academic employees. The senate discussed the possibility of such an increase. Doc. Hrušák presented the outputs of the ongoing evaluation and proposed changes in evaluation of the workplaces. There was a proposal to participate in the change of conditions for the higher doctorate and professor appointment procedures at Charles University in cooperation with other medical faculties – mainly for clinical disciplines.

1. Doc. Hrušák and Veronika Hernychová informed the senate about the negotiations concerning the accommodation of the students. The proposal of the social committee of the academic senate of Charles University was declined and an alternative proposal is being discussed.
    
2. Professor Vízek informed the senate about the agenda of the academic senate of Charles University. The senate approved the new Wage regulation of Charles University and did not approve the proposal to change the Scholarship Rules of Charles University.
    
3. Veronika Hernychová asked for prolongation of the opening hours in the study room of the Scientific Information Centre.
    

• The next meeting of the academic senate will take place on Wednesday 18th May 2005 at 2.30 p.m. in the small left lecture hall at the Faculty.
• The Minutes were sent to the Department of Languages for the translation into English for websites of international students on 28th April 2005.
