PhD Programme

The PhD programme of the Medical Faculty was created to emphasize the increasing future link between patient care and clinical/basic research. The two-year programme addresses medical doctors who seek to gain a further in-depth scientific education. Talented young students receive comprehensive scientific competencies as well as important key skills in order to pursue a career in patient-oriented and basic research.

Within the course of the programme students have to carry out a full-time research project and have to participate in the accompanying curriculum.

Obligation of the programme comprises:

• participation in the curriculum (at least 20 credit points)
• submission of the thesis covering the results of the two-years scientific project
• defense of the thesis

Upon successful completion, participants receive the title "PhD" or alternatively "Dr.rer.biol.hum." (as German equivalent).
