Lower-Bavarian Medical Campus

Lower-Bavarian Medical Campus

Medical Education and Research for the Region

As part of the Lower-Bavarian Medical Campus (MCN), a new medical degree program is being established under the leadership of the University of Regensburg in cooperation with the University of Passau, eight hospitals in Lower Bavaria, and two universities of applied sciences. Students were admitted to the Lower Bavaria Medicine program for the first time for the 2024/2025 winter semester and will be distributed across the four locations in Lower Bavaria - Deggendorf, Straubing, Landshut, and Passau - for the first time in the 2027/2028 winter semester. Regardless of their location, part of the coursework for all students takes place at the University of Passau.

Our goal is to sustainably strengthen medical care in Lower Bavaria, advance medical research, and train physicians for the region.

To this end, the University of Passau contributes to the curricular training of medical students and, through the Center for Digital Medical Education (ZeDiMA), is responsible for providing digital medical educational content. This content is of particular importance given the regional distribution of students across various locations. The Institute of Health Sciences (IGW) serves as an interdisciplinary and cross-campus hub for health sciences research in Lower Bavaria.
