The program at PMU Salzburg is perfect for students who value a close-knit environment. With just 74 students per cohort, everyone knows each other, creating a friendly, almost school-like atmosphere. The curriculum is interesting, varied, and well-organized.

Good teaching, small groups, close ties to the hospital, and international collaborations. The practical year is highly customizable. Passing the first part of the United States Medical Licensing Examination (USMLE) is a must. Meaning you'll gain a lot of knowledge but also makes for an intense learning phase.
