INFORMATION FOR THE ENROLLMENT AND COMPLETION OF PHYSICAL EDUCATION COURSES

Dear Students,

Numerous staff members at the University of Miskolc are dedicated to increasing the quantity and quality of physical activities that help maintain the health of the university community.

Course Enrollment:

1. The first step is for students of all faculties to enroll in the appropriate Physical Education course (Physical Education 1, Physical Education 2, Physical Education 3, Physical Education 4) through the NEPTUN system during the registration week (September 2-5, 2025).
2. The second step is to log in to https://app.uni-miskolc.hu/, where the available physical education classes, sports sessions, and sports opportunities required for fulfilling the mandatory physical education course are listed.

• Access to the site requires an M365 university email address and password (x.y@student.uni-miskolc.hu), which all students possess.
• Students must register for each class in advance via the application, as classes are announced as events. If a student forgets to register, they can still do so within the first 10 minutes of the class, but not afterward.
• A minimum of 20 active participations in physical education sessions is required to obtain the signature. The mandatory 20 sessions can be freely chosen from any sport sessions listed in the system and must be completed by January 09 (end of the second signature replacement week) at the latest.
• Students can track their completed sessions in the sports registration system.
• The signature for Physical Education will be awarded based on the registered sessions in https://app.uni-miskolc.hu/.
• A maximum of two Physical Education courses can be taken and completed in a semester!

A maximum of three physical education sessions per week can be completed in any form of exercise, as this is what the system registers and counts. Students may participate in more sessions if they wish, as the enjoyment of sports and health preservation are the most important aspects. In the UNI-GYM fitness center, a maximum of one session per day can be credited.

FOR CHOOSING A SPORT, THE DEPARTMENT’S INSTRUCTORS PROVIDE INDIVIDUAL CONSULTATIONS DURING OFFICE HOURS! (See the section on office hours.)

Sessions completed beyond the replacement period cannot be counted. Continuous monitoring of opportunities on the APP.UNI-MISKOLC.HU platform is ALWAYS the responsibility of the student! Complaining about the recording of opportunities can only be done on the day of performance!

A MEGHIRDETETT TÚRÁKRA NEM VONATKOZIK A HETI 3 ALKALMAS KORLÁTOZÁS. MINDEN TÚRA RENDELKEZIK EGY PONTTAL, AMI AZ ÉRTE JÁRÓ ALKALMAKAT JELÖLI. AZ AZONOS HÉTEN TELJESÍTETT EGYÉB SPORTOLÁSI ALKALMAKAT MINDEN ESETBEN FELÜLÍRJA AZ AZONA  HÉTEN TELJESÍTETT TÚRA PONTJA. (Egy héten nem szerezhető több a túra alkalmainál és az alkalmak nem összeadhatóak, hiszen a kötelező 20 alkalom rendszeres testmozgással történő teljesítése a cél nem az, hogy két hét alatt teljesíthető legyen.)

• UNI-GYM (University Gym):
  • Individual workouts without an instructor.
  • A maximum of one session per day can be credited.
