Postgraduate medical residency in Germany

(No prior German language skills needed to join the program) 

A private hospital group of acute, specialist and rehabilitation clinics based in Germany has tied up with a University in Germany which runs an innovative 1-year program for foreign medical graduates with no prior German language skills. 

The suitable candidates will join the University in Germany for the 1-year program in October 2014. 

During the program the participants will go through intensive German language classes at the university in the mornings. The participants will be prepared up to level C1 and will appear in the exam at the end of the program. 

Following the language classes, the participants will spend time at the local hospital as an observer and gain valuable practical German medical skills as well as learn about the German healthcare system. While at the hospital, the participants will have an opportunity to get exposure in all major Medical, Paramedical and Surgical specialties. 

Upon successful completion of the program, based on performance, the candidates may be offered a full-time position as an 'Assistant Physician' in the specialty of their choice at one of the group hospitals. 

The salary of an ‘Assistant Physician’ ranges from 2500 € - 4000 € a month depending on the candidates’ previous work experience. 

Only after securing a full-time position as an ‘Assistant Physician’, a candidate can complete the postgraduate medical residency (5 – 6 years) and achieve the title of ‘Specialist’ in Germany. 

Minimum requirements: 
- MBBS
