Clinical Traineeship

Students have the opportunity to gain an insight into the clinical care in oncological outpatient and in-patient facilities via a clinical traineeship ("Famulatur") over a minimum of two weeks. The Department of Medical Oncology (Medical Clinic VI) is part of the Center for Internal Medicine at Heidelberg University Hospital (UKHD) and a core area of ​​the National Center for Tumor Diseases (NCT) Heidelberg. The training of our future colleagues is very important to us! Please contact us, if you have any questions.
