Medical study place in the Public Health Service Admission

    You can apply for a study place within the framework of the preliminary quotas for university admission to study human medicine.

    Description

    Applications can be submitted annually for study places with subsequent employment as a GP, primarily in rural areas, as well as for study places with subsequent employment in one of the Hessian health authorities.
    Applicants are selected in a two-stage selection process in which the three medical universities are involved. The main focus is on the personal and subject-specific aptitude of the applicants.
    A university entrance qualification is a prerequisite for application.
    The selected applicants study in Frankfurt am Main, Giessen and Marburg. They receive special support as part of the "Hessian Path" and are thus specifically prepared for their future work.
    After completing their specialist training in general medicine, internal medicine or pediatrics and adolescent medicine, the trained physicians will practice their profession for ten years in a region of the state that is medically undersupplied or at risk of being undersupplied.
