The Faculty of Medical Sciences of the National University of Asunción, as it had been planning, will develop the practical classes in person and the theoretical ones in the virtual modality, reported Prof. Dr. Andrés Szwako, academic director of the FCM- A. It is within the framework of the gradual and safe return to classes, according to the resolution of the National Council for Higher Education (CONES).
In fact, classes have already officially started at FCM-UNA, with the attendance from Monday 14 of the students of the tenth semester of the 2015 curriculum. The rest of the students who are from the second, fourth, sixth, and eighth semester began on Monday, February 21, while those of the 2011 mesh, which are from the fifth and sixth years, will begin on March 21; and on July 4 they start the first semester.
The headquarters of the Faculty of Medical Sciences has approximately 1,000 students, and the subsidiary located in Santa Rosa del Aguaray (Department of San Pedro) about 250, which totals about 1,250 university students. A large percentage of the practical classes at the central headquarters are held at the Hospital de Clínicas and others, such as practices in physiology, histology and anatomy, at the basic sciences building at the Saxony headquarters (Asunción).
