Information on practical training for visiting medical students at the University Hospital Magdeburg

Information on internships (hospitation) for visiting medical students

Depending on the medical department, it is possible for visiting medical students to do practical training at our hospital. Knowledge of the German language will be an advantage. Not all departments will accept students who are not able to speak German. Very good English knowledge, though, is necessary if you do not speak German. This kind of practical training is called "Hospitation" and means, that you will have an observer status.

Unfortunately, we cannot offer any payment or financial aid. You will be responsible to organize accommodation on your own.

Application at the International Office (Akademisches Auslandsamt):

If you want to apply for practical training in our hospital, please inform yourself about our departments.

Information on our clinical departments is available on this website:
