Please see here a list of all courses and book examinations available for exchange students in the Degree Programme in Medicine (Faculty of Medicine, University of Helsinki) in the academic year 2022 - 2023. Note that in addition to these courses, medicine students from outside of the University of Helsinki can also complete clinical and/or research internships/electives/rotations in the University of Helsinki and/or Helsinki University Hospital (see How to apply for internship/thesis work/research for more). Please note that the Degree programme in Medicine requires three years of prior studies in medicine, two years of pre-clinical and one year of clinial studies, before the exchange. Medicine is also highly restricted and access to them cannot be guaranteed to exchange students.

By coming to the University of Helsinki for a course-based student exchange, you commit to completing at least 5 ECTS credits in courses for each study month of the exchange. If you have been selected to courses based on your LA, you can no longer change courses for internship afterwards.
