Duration of the Master Course
The study course takes 4 semesters; it can be extended to a maximum of 6 semesters.
Part-Time Studies
It is possible to complete the studies parallel to a professional occupation. However, it is not advisable to take the master course while working full-time. We recommend that the part-time occupation does not exceed 40-50% if the master course should be completed within 4 semesters.
Compulsory courses take place (with rare exceptions) on only 3 days per week. Students who take the master course while working part-time can apply for an extension of the maximum duration.

The academic year is divided into two semesters each of which takes 14 weeks. The fall semester starts in mid-September and ends before Christmas, the spring semester lasts from mid-February until the end of May.
Admission Requirements
Bachelor graduates of Human, Dental, and Veterinary Medicine have to make up for missing technical knowledge in the course of their studies.
Graduates from other academic fields can also apply. Depending on their background they may be admitted under the condition that they make up for missing technical or general knowledge.
