As a medical student, you can benefit from our close integration of practice, research and teaching and take advantage of the opportunity to complete internships or clinical traineeships with us as part of your medical studies.

The clinical traineeship gives you an initial insight into the working world of psychiatry and gives you the opportunity to familiarise yourself with a workplace for starting your career as a junior doctor at an early stage.

As a junior doctor, you will have the opportunity to familiarise yourself with the exciting and diverse field of psychiatry during a tertial. Together with our ward doctors and senior physicians, you will be introduced to medical activities in a psychiatric ward and gain valuable practical experience.

Please note: 
Clinical traineeships are generally recognised, for the PJ tertials you must obtain recognition from your home university.

• We take into account your personal wishes regarding the place of work in the clinical area.
• Targeted, personalised induction and support.
• Participation in the entire internal training programme including teaching on the wards.
• An internship allowance is granted for PJ tertials.
• If required, you will receive a room in the on-site dormitory.
• An attractive working environment: state-of-the-art clinic structures in a region with a high recreational value, a canteen with regional and vegetarian dishes at favourable prices and much more.

If you have any questions, please contact the Medical Director of Psychiatry and Psychotherapy, Prof. Dr Dr Uwe Herwig.
