"The most exciting sentence in science that announces new discoveries is not 'Eureka!' but 'That's funny..." - Isaac Asimov (1920 - 1992)
Are you curious and creative? Would you like to get to the bottom of things?
Then the International Doctorate in Medical Science is just right for you!
Typical professional fields of our applicants are: medicine, biology, genetics, cell biology, natural sciences, computer sciences, artificial intelligence, physics, mathematics, technical professions, statistics, psychology, social sciences, physiotherapy, health professions or pharmacy.
In addition to projects at the PMU sites in Salzburg and Nuremberg, we are also happy to support external research projects in hospitals, the private sector, and non-profit and public institutions.
Research questions can come from all areas of medical science. Basic research is just as interesting to us as clinical studies or projects in the field of public health.
The main supervision of all research projects must be carried out by a habilitated person with PMU/clinical affiliation. This applies to internal and external projects. In addition to the main supervisor, all students have two co-supervisors. These persons contribute expertise to the project. Neither a habilitation nor a PMU/clinical affiliation is required.
