Postgraduate Training

The Medical Faculty in cooperation with the University Hospital is responsible for the continuing medical education in a narrow sense leading to medical specialization according to the Medical Association's professional code of conduct. The residencies are regulated by the Landesärztekammer of the State of Baden-Württemberg (WBO 2006). Information on the authorization for residencies can be obtained from the University Hospital.

Advanced training by the Medical Faculty in a broader sense also comprises academic qualification (dissertation, habilitation), didactical education of lecturers (didactics) and specialized as well as interdisciplinary training.

One major focus of the Medical Faculty of the University of Ulm lies in its responsibility to foster lifelong learning of medical doctors, postgraduate scientists and health professionals on an interdisciplinary and international level.
