What you will study

The material is taught in a module system according to the principle of “topic- and organ system-related blocks.” The purpose of this structure is to provide a more accessible path to understanding the interwoven nature of health care and disease management. Information and practical experience are conveyed via lectures, seminars, small group-teaching (problem-oriented learning), ward rounds, bed-side teaching, clinical rotations, simulators, and patients actors.
