The Department of Health Sciences, Medicine and Research offers education, training, and continuing professional development for physicians and healthcare professionals in various medical fields. These include medical-technical specializations, nutritional medicine, and the fundamentals of clinical research. Current research findings in the fields of the musculoskeletal system, regenerative medicine, and new therapeutic approaches are integrated into teaching.
The ongoing development of knowledge in medicine and health poses a major challenge for the healthcare system. Well-trained and specialized physicians, therapists, and nursing staff will therefore become increasingly important in the future. The department offers practice-oriented and specialized education and training programs. Key areas include orthopedics, traumatology, sports medicine, physiotherapy, logopedics, ergotherapy, and nutrition, as well as complementary fields. In addition to subject-specific specializations, the curriculum also includes fundamentals of evidence-based medicine, management and communication skills, and the philosophy of science.
