and Ille-et-Vilaine departments and has a population of
Along the Breton shoreline, there are thousands of islands, islets, reefs and rocks testifying to the rocky capes and shelves engulfed by the rising sea. A handful of inhabited islands can nevertheless be distinguished by their strong personality, derived from both their history, traditions and climate.
Although they like to assert their Breton identity, the Armoricans never
miss an opportunity to show their attachment to the Celtic culture. They have
special relationships with the Celts of Ireland,

The coasts of Finistère along with its islands form the first piece of land of the European continent. The islands (Ouessant, Molène, Sein, Batz and Glénans), incomparable gateways to Finistère, have managed to conserve their uniqueness and customs. Rich in history, with their strong identity they are the western continuation of the European continent.
The department of Finistère has an incomparable richness in landscapes, nature and heritage. It is the main French department for fishing and takes its wealth from the sea and shoreline by exploiting its maritime resources, thalassotherapy, research, tourism and business. Its long coastal front composed of more than 800 kms has naturally generated many activities: fishing, French Navy-related business, sailing, fish canning factories, medical thalassotherapy, oceanography, gastronomy, seaweed and applied chemistry.
Lastly, in economics, painting or literature, Finistère has managed very early to find its place and to make its voice heard. And this historic presence continues today: "if Finistère today excels in a specific domain, it is because it has done so for a long time".

The main industrial activities of the region are professional electronics, construction of military ships in its shipyards, mechanical construction and agri-business.

Brest is also a place of culture with its cultural and conference centre, the “Quartz”, close to the Town Hall in the city centre, which receives 200 000 visitors a year for shows, exhibitions and conferences The Quartz has also created a system of in-house productions to allow young artists to first perform their creation.
The town also has 17 libraries, 1 artothèque, 1 record lending library, 1 centre for composing music, 1 Breton centre of popular art, 1 national school of Fine Art, 7 schools of Music among which a national conservatoire, 11 permanent show halls, 5 museums, 1 8 250-m2 hall at the "Parc des Expositions" and 200 sports clubs.

The cultural capital of Breton Cornouaille
has had a rich and disturbed past. The first traces date back to the period of
the Roman occupation. In the 11th Century, the county lost its independence and
was integrated into the patrimony of the Dukes of Brittany. In the fight that
brought the candidates for the title of Duke during the wars of succession
(14th Century), the town was completely destroyed and pilled. But, it recovered
from its havoc. Its old centre with its paved streets and its old half-timbered
houses were saved from all the conflicts which turned

Its strength comes from its atypical location at the most extreme point of Brittany. Traditions warrant its dynamism.

"ECTS Credits" are a value allocated to represent the amount of work that each student is supposed to do for each course.
They denote the amount of work that each course represents in relation to the entire volume of work required to successfully achieve a full year of academic study, that is lectures, tutorials, practicals, seminars, work in the library or at home and exams or other methods of assessment
Within the framework of ECTS, 60 credits represent the amount of work for one full year of study, 30 credits correspond to one semester and 20 credits to one term of study.
ECTS credits can be given for internships or training periods and for projects carried out at the end of study in as much as they are an integral part of the official programme of study at the home- and host-universities.
The ECTS credits which are given for courses are granted to students who successfully finish their course by passing the examinations or other assessments.

Hospitals www.chu-brest.fr Over their medical syllabus, students carry out several training periods in the different Departments (Medical Practice, Surgery...) of the University Teaching Hospital composed of the three following hospitals: Hospital Morvan It is the oldest hospital. It is located on the same geographical area as the Faculty of Medicine, the centre for Dental Care, and the Blood Transfusion Centre. It contains 400 beds for in-patients in Paediatrics, Gynecology-Obstetrics, Dermatology and Otolaryngology, Physical therapy and of readjustment, Ophtalmology and Cancerology. Hospital de Hospital de Bohars, 250-bed hospital dedicated to Psychiatry. V - Lists of the degrees and diplomas taught at the Faculty of Medicine The following diplomas can be prepared at the Faculty of Medicine: Diploma of Doctor in Medicine (Bachelor of Medicine) Certificates of Completion of Specialist Training (Bachelor of Surgery....) DEA (One-year postgraduate degree) and PhD in Life and Health Sciences Certificates of Capability in Medicine Master of Science (MSc) in Biological and Medical Sciences Bachelor and Master of Science (BSc and MSc) in Sanitary and Social Sciences Several University Diplomas. Moreover, the Faculty of Medicine houses The Faculty of Dentistry; dentistry students have passed the PCEM competitive examination and are trained in the Centre of Dental Care part of the University Teaching Hospital during 5 years. The School of Midwives; midwives students have passed the PCEM competitive examination and are trained in the University teaching hospital part of the University Teaching Hospital during 4 years. VI - Description of Teaching and Assessment Methods Teaching Methods Most of the pre-clinical and clinical courses are in the form of lectures; tutorial sessions and clinical training periods in hospital. However, the traditional medical school
curriculum has been restructured over the last four years through a scheme set
up in collaboration with the About a third of the teaching staff applies this way of teaching and start it on the first year of the Medical Cycle (DCEM1): thus, once to twice a week, 8 to 10 students meet one of their tutors to appraise the knowledge acquired from the study of a given problem in order to be capable of solving it later. This is the reason why the overall number of teaching hours at the Faculty has been reduced in the last years. Assessment Assessment is made through written tests; two exam sessions are held and may take place at the end of a four-month period. Written tests are graded between 0 and 20, then, a specific coefficient is allotted to each of them. Any mark below 6/20 is a disqualifying result. Clinical Training Periods A report book dealing with the clinical training periods carried out in different units of the University Teaching Hospital is given to each medical student. It details and develops the different points of focus. In each unit the tutor responsible for these students during these periods has to appraise their clinical work. On advice of the Head of the unit where the student was attached, the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine validates the clinical training period. In the event of a fail, the student must carry out an additional clinical training period over May-September period of the same academic year. Whenever all the clinical training periods or only a part of them are not validated, the student must repeat his/her year and carry out again all the clinical training periods. H - Course Structure Once the baccalaureat (secondary school leaving certificate) has been obtained, the French Medical syllabus takes at least 9 years. It falls into three main cycles briefly described in the following chart and detailed in the second part of this document. Two-year Pre-Medical Cycle (PCEM) Four-year Medical Cycle (DCEM) split into two main parts: DCEM1 (one academic year): the subjects taught are Bioclinics, Immunology, Forensic medicine and right of health, occupational medicine, module Cardiology-Pneumology, Cardiovascular physiology, Renal physiology, ....; this course also contains a 400-hour introduction to clinical training. A 3-year period split into DCEM2, DCEM3 and DCEM4 consisting in 2 to 3-month clinical training periods in the University Teaching Hospital. Focus is placed on education in Pathology and Therapeutics. This part of the medical cycle is being reformed since 2001. The student must get the Certificate of Clinical and Therapeutic Synthesis to be allowed to enter the last cycle of medical syllabus. Examination: for the validation of the Undergraduate studies, delivered by a local jury, with an outside personality. Final Medical Cycle (TCEM): it takes 36 months to 5 years. Either medical students follow a 36-month training to General Practice through Residency consisting of 3-year of practice in a hospital including 6-month at the University Teaching Hospital plus 6-month training period in a GP’s office. To earn the title of MD (Doctor of Medicine) the student must be graduated from medical school through the validation of his/her residency period and have defended his/her thesis. Or medical students can prepare a Certificate of Completion in Specialised Training in Medical- or Surgical-specialities, Occupational Medicine, Public Health, Psychiatry and Biology through speciality internship to which they can get access once they have passed a national competitive examination. The intern (house-doctor) is educated and trained in a University Teaching Hospital for 4 to 5 years, then earns the grade of MD (Doctor of Medicine) once his/her thesis has been defended and a Certificate of Specialised Training in a given speciality further to the validation of his/her specialised education. Continuing education : In collaboration with the Faculty of Medicine of Rennes and the “Féderation de Bretagne des Associations de Formation Médicale Continue”, the Faculty of Medicine of Brest is involved in an institution “Collège des Hautes Etudes en Médecine Générale”. Every year the Life Sciences and Health Continuing Education Department organises several training days for GPs and Specialists. National ranking examination for ranking and selection of the specialist course, including general practice and the different medical specialities.

EUROPEAN CREDIT TRANSFER SYSTEMWhat is ECTS?To help students to make the most from their study abroad and facilitate academic recognition, the European Community has developed a European Credit Transfer System which provides common procedures through a way of measuring and comparing learning achievements and transferring them from one university to another one. How does ECTS work? The European Credit Transfer System is based on mutual confidence between the different institutional partners. So, each University Department involved in ECTS study programme has described the courses offered with the number of credits allocated to each course unit. What are ECTS credits? ECTS credits describe the student workload required for the completion of a full year of academic study (lectures, practical and tutorial work, seminars, private work) to pass examination. In ECTS, 60 credits represent one year of study (in terms of workload); 30 credits are given for a semester (6 months) and 20 for a term (3 months). ECTS credits are also allocated to practical training periods and to facultative courses which are part of the study syllabus. These credits will be transferred from one institution to another one in the case of previous agreement between them. ECTS students All the students from any Department involved in this system who wish to study abroad can take part to ECTS study programme within the limits of available places. ECTS students stay at a host university of the European Community to attend courses. They do not pay the inscription fees usually required by the host University. On the other hand, they still pay them in their own university while they are studying abroad. The period of study abroad in the host institution is strictly limited within 3 months and one full academic year. ECTS students will receive credits and academic recognition for the studies achieved with success in any institution involved in ECTS. Their transcript of record will allow them to transfer these academic credits from their host university to their home university in case of learning agreement between the concerned institutions without any loss of time or credits. Registration of ECTS students They are recruited out of the fixed quota and are register at a time other than the pre-registration periods for French students. To apply to the Faculty of Medicine they must fulfil the following conditions: to have been pre-selected by their home-university (enclose a letter of recommendation from their ECTS co-ordinator); prove a good written and spoken knowledge of the French language (enclose a letter from the ECTS co-ordinator testifying that the candidate has passed a test to check his/her proficiency in French. The candidate application must be sent to Pr Jacques MANSOURATI, ECTS co-ordinator at the Faculty of Medicine of Brest not later than: F March 1st to attend courses and take part to the clinical training from June to September; F June 1st to attend courses and take part to the clinical training from October to January; F October 1st to attend courses and take part to the clinical training from February to May. The student will have to clearly indicate what part and which validations he/she intends wants to complete. The applicant and his/her home-university co-ordinator will be informed by the Faculty of Medicine Staff of the final decision. If the student gives up the idea of ECTS exchange, the host-university co-ordinator will be immediately informed to make another student can take his/her place. The candidate allowed to take part to ECTS exchange will be exempted of paying the host-university registration fees. In consequence, he/she will have to prove his/her registration for the academic year of concern in his/her home-university. The ECTS student will hold a student card
allowing him/her to be registered at the host-university library, to enjoy
CROUS advantages and reductions attached to the condition of student in A social security cover being essential, the ECTS student will bring with him/her the E111 form (or equivalent) issued by his home social security centre. Academic tutors Once the ECTS student has been registered,
he/she will be assigned to a given place. A tutor will be in charge of him/her
over his/her whole stay at Each ECTS will have also a student tutor to help his/her integration into the various activities of the Faculty of Medicine.

FINAL medical CYCLETCEMSYLLABUS and VALIDATION OF THE FINAL MEDICAL CYCLEOverall Information The medical cycle in General Practice or Residency extends on six semesters of compulsory training leading to the award of the grade of Doctor in Medicine. It is competition to the medical students who have successfully completed both parts of the Medical Cycle examination. This Final Medical Cycle is ruled by the
decree n°97- Theoretical Courses The theoretical courses deal with the syllabus defined by the General Practice Department in application of the laws in force. It is split into five semesters in the form of round table sessions, one full day per month, focusing on a given topic and directed by one teacher. Its syllabus is defined and stated every year by the board of teaching staff of General Practice Department and handed out to the medical students. These medical students are taught by the General Practice Teaching Staff of the faculty of Medicine under the responsibility of Professor JOUQUAN, Co-ordinator of this Medical Cycle, and Dr BAIL with the involvement of GPs, hospital doctors and other people working in Health field. Attendance to seminars is compulsory; so if Resident does not attend to them he/she will have to take an oral test during which he/she will be required to solve a health problem in relation with the content of theoretical courses. He/she may be requested to achieve his/her theoretical education by taking part in the teaching activities of the following years. The final validation of each year depends on oral and clinical tests assessed by two teachers of the General Practice Department, one of them at least being in charge of courses. Clinical Training in Hospital It consists of six semesters of clinical training: Four of them must be carried out in hospitals and it is mandatory that among them 1 will performed in the University Teaching Hospital; The last one entitled "semester of training in primary health care" must be carried out in a GP's office. a) Clinical training periods in hospitals It is a full-time clinical attachment with 5 weeks of annual leave taken in agreement with the Head of Unit. The clinical training periods are assessed and validated by the Dean of the Faculty of Medicine further to the appraisal of both the Head of Unit and the Hospital Head. In the event a clinical training period would not be validated, the Resident will have to carry out a new clinical training period or an additional period whose length and the Unit where it will be performed will be determined by the Co-ordinator of the final Medical Cycle. b) Training in primary health care The resident must carry out one semester of training in primary health care in one or several GP's office(s).These GPs must be acknowledged as Training Period Tutors in application of the decree 87-495. The resident chooses GP's office(s) from a list edited by the Faculty of Medicine. A part of this training period can be carried out in Primary Care or Prevention Units off GP's office. An agreement is signed by the Training Period Tutor, the University Training Hospital Head of Brest and the Dean (or his representative) of the Faculty of Medicine of Brest. At the end of training period a report is written by the Training Period Tutor(s). The resident will also write a report. In the event the training period would not be validated by the Training Period Tutor(s), the Resident will have to perform another training period under conditions stated by the Co-ordonator of the Final Medical Cycle. During this training period, the Resident will still be paid by the Hospital. Medical Thesis To be allowed to defend his/her medical thesis, the resident must have at least validated three semesters of training periods. The resident will have his/her viva on a personal work dealing with a subject he/she has himself/herself chosen and prepared in close connection with the Chairman and other members of the Jury.
