Degree recognition and career prospects
A degree from the Faculty of Medicine at Masaryk University in Brno comes from the Czech Republic, an EU member state. Under Directive 2005/36/EC it is automatically recognised throughout the EU/EEA and in Switzerland – both the medical title MUDr. after six years and the dental title MDDr. after five. No equivalence assessment or additional examination is required.
The next step is to apply to the competent authority of the country where you want to work, which will usually ask for proof of language skills at a professional level. Processing times vary by country, so it pays to contact the authority early.
You can then apply for specialist training at accredited hospitals and practices on the same terms as graduates of domestic medical schools. Brno is the second-largest city in the Czech Republic and a university location with strong clinical ties. If you want to stay in Moravia after graduating, you can, because the degree entitles you to practise medicine or dentistry anywhere in the EU.

There is no automatic transfer route. A transfer to a domestic faculty involves an individual credit-recognition process and depends on available places in higher semesters. Plan your studies as a complete path to graduation.
