What you will study

Instead of a strict split between preclinical and clinical study, interdisciplinary modules link natural science, clinical and practical content. The equivalent of the first part of the medical examination (M1) is taken after three years. Three longitudinal tracks (professional development and interprofessional action; clinical-practical skills, communication and counselling; research and science) run through all years, and elective tracks allow individual focus.

Career pathways

Medical licensure opens many fields; specialist training is available in 33 specialties from general practice to urology.
