Model course in Human Medicine

The aim of the model course in Human Medicine, a joint initiative between the University of Oldenburg and the University of Groningen, is to explore new and cross-border approaches to medical training. From day one, students are taught not only the scientific fundamentals of the discipline but they also follow clinical modules. In addition, they follow modules that are specifically designed to help them improve their communication skills. They gain insights into and first-hand experience of medical practice e.g. by completing internships at general practitioners’ practices from the beginning of their studies. Students also have the option of spending at least one year in Groningen, which gives them the opportunity to learn about another European healthcare system.
