Medical specialist training

At the Medical University of Graz, physicians have the opportunity to receive specialist training in many medical disciplines. During medical specialist training at Med Uni Graz, students come in close contact with university research and education as well as patient care from the very start.

As a university medical specialist, you have the opportunity to choose a clinical or a scientific/academic career at the Medical University of Graz and to complete a doctoral program while being employed. In addition to high-quality patient care, the profile of a university medical specialist primarily involves active participation in research and education. By acquiring scientific qualifications, you develop your personal profile in the direction of a research professor or a university assistant medical director. At the start of employment, a competence catalog in the specific area that includes university requirements is determined for each university medical specialist. These competencies must be acquired before a permanent employment contract is concluded.
