Educational infrastructure supporting PhD students of the Medical Faculty
Biomedical Engineering
The PhD program in Biomedical Engineering provides advanced educational tools in the field of Biomedical Engineering to complement the existing doctoral supervision offered by the Faculty of Medicine (Contact: Gabriela Oser).
Health Sciences
The PhD Program Health Sciences (PPHS) aims at offering students the maximum opportunities to successfully pursue their PhD studies. Doctoral students whose research focuses on a Health Sciences topic are automatically members of the PPHS.

The PPHS offers:
- Web-based platform allowing an easy navigation through the course offerings
- Thematic training by summer/winter schools
- Career day
- Interdisciplinary research seminars
- Funding for students
- Investment in quality of PhD supervision
More details can be found on the PPHS website.
