STUDYING HUMAN OR DENTAL MEDICINE IN MÜNSTER

Medical knowledge is growing every day. That’s why it is so important not just to memorise facts during your studies, but also to develop strategies for managing this growing body of knowledge and applying new findings in practice. Good doctors also need strong communication and social skills to make well-founded diagnoses and work with patients to determine the best treatment path.

This is what the Medical Faculty of the University of Münster aims to teach its students. It also offers opportunities to acquire research skills early in the degree programme. Through regular evaluations, informal exchanges and an ideas competition, students can contribute their experiences to the ongoing development of the medical curriculum.
