Details

The Human Medicine degree programme at HMU Health and Medical University Erfurt is aimed at prospective medical doctors seeking a practice-oriented, comprehensive education at university level. The goal is to prepare students for a medical career in a wide range of fields, including research, the pharmaceutical industry, occupational medicine, and medical technology.

• The first phase of study covers the fundamentals of medicine such as anatomy, physiology, and biochemistry.
• The second phase involves clinical training, which is organised by topic and organ system.
• The third phase includes the Practical Year, which is completed in partner hospitals.

From the first semester, the curriculum promotes interprofessional collaboration and places great emphasis on clinical-diagnostic skills, which are practised in specialised skill labs. The connection between theory and practice is ensured through the Medical Teaching Program.
