Course options in Healthcare and Nursing

As an exchange student in the fields of healthcare or nursing, you have the opportunity to complete a practical placement at selected local hospitals. This option is only available to students completing a semester abroad who have applied and been accepted through our International Office. Please note that a language skill level of at least B2 (CEFR) in German is required to apply in nursing and C1 is required for working in a labor and delivery ward in midwifery.
If you have strong German language skills, it is also possible to participate in regular courses in many of our degree programs. A list of all degree programs at the Faculty of Social Work and Health is available here.
