The learning objectives characterize in detail the respective growth in knowledge, skills, and attitudes that you will acquire on your way to becoming a physician.
Fifth Year of Study
In the 5th year of study, you will complete two four-week study and two practice modules and two eight-week integrated study and practice blocks. In both the four-week study modules and the eight-week study and practice modules, the last week is reserved for self-study; the final block exam takes place at the end of the last week.
In the 5th year of study, you will rotate exclusively through the various clinics and institutes of the UKD during the practice modules. In addition to bedside teaching and "learning on treatment occasions", you will discuss and present selected patient cases in medically supervised case conferences. In the group, you will train differential diagnostic thinking in an interactive learning discussion - always in relation to the specific patient case.
Following the fifth year, the secend part of the medical exam will take place.
Schienen im 5. Studienjahr
Auch innerhalb des 5. Studienjahres werden Sie in vier Rotationsschienen eingeteilt. Die für Sie gültige Schiene erkennen Sie anhand der Ihnen von der Online-Belegung mitgeteilten Gruppennummer. Diese Gruppennummer bezeichnet jeweils drei Studierende. Für den Kleingruppenunterricht in den Studienblöcken werden zumeist fünf Kleingruppen à drei Studierende zusammengefasst. Aus organisatorischen Gründen wird für einige Kleingruppen in den Praxisblöcken in einzelnen Wochen Eigenstudium vorgesehen – die Fallkonferenzen in dieser Woche sind dennoch für alle Studierenden verpflichtend.
Ihre Schienennummer und Ihre Kleingruppe bleiben in der Regel während der gesamten Qualifikationsphase 2 gleich. Wurden Sie also zu Beginn des 4. Studienjahrs der Schiene 4.2 zugeteilt, so wählen Sie auch im folgenden Semester die Fortsetzung dieser Schiene und starten im 5. Studienjahr mit der Schiene 5.2. Die Schienen bauen nicht aufeinander auf, alle Studierenden durchlaufen dadurch im Studienverlauf von Q2 die gleichen Blöcke – nur in unterschiedlicher Reihenfolge.
Study and Practice Modules
The study modules of study years 4 and 5 include central clinical subjects such as internal medicine, surgery, ophthalmology, ear, nose and throat medicine, neurology, orthopedics, etc. In addition, you will go through three "integrated study and practice modules", in which the practice modules are interlinked with the study modules in terms of organization and content.
In this integrated block, you will learn about perioperative medicine with its areas of anesthesia, intensive care and pain medicine. In addition, you will learn how to deal professionally with borderline situations of medical action and concrete emergencies.
In the study module "Oncology", you will learn the basics of tumor biology as well as the most important aspects of prevention, diagnostics and therapy based on various entities, taking into account the necessary interdisciplinary cooperation.
The interactions between humans, their health and their (natural) environment are diverse and complex. This study module makes these diverse interrelationships visible by means of individual, essential aspects and shows their significance for the medical profession.
The integrated study and practice module "Stages of Life" focuses on the stages of life from the emergence of life through birth, childhood and adolescence to the aging process.
