The study of human medicine. The goal of the degree study programme in human medicine is to educate competent and scientifically thinking physicians. Our graduates must be adequate to the requirements of modern medicine and practise humane, patient-oriented medicine. 50 students are admitted per year at the Salzburg and Nuremberg locations. They are selected in an elaborate, three-stage admission procedure. Hereby we are oriented towards socially committed and highly motivated applicants who show a clearly expressed interest in man as a biological and socialbeing and in the natural sciences and psychosocial aspects of the diseases.
The study of pharmacy. The Paracelsus Medical University offers a bachelor’s and master’s study programme in pharmacy at the Salzburg location, starting with the winter semester 2017/18. The innovative curriculum forms the basic natural sciences orientation of pharmacy already early in the study programme and particularly takes into account the aspects of clinical pharmacy as well as the interrelation between pharmaceutic theory and practice.
Study courses in nursing sciences. The 2-in-1 Care Model course offers one education with two degrees – an undergraduate degree in nursing science as well as a professional qualification (diploma in healthcare and nursing). The Paracelsus University guarantees a solid foundation in science and practical research skills. The online course in nursing sciences offers an online bachelor’s degree in nursing sciences. Students of the master’s course in nursing sciences gain the master’s degree in nursing sciences.
