⇢ International students: Documents to be submitted only after you have been admitted

Internships in Germany relating to a degree course, even in the context of the Winter School, require the approval of the Federal Employment Agency (Bundesagentur für Arbeit). LMU will obtain this approval for you.

Medical certificate and in-house medical service

    Please submit the Visiting Student Immunization Record (Medical certificate) required by the LMU University Hospital Munich for all international students participating in clinical rotations.

    A certificate, completely filled in, is a necessary precondition for your deployment in the hospital and serves to protect patients and staff against infectious diseases. Your attention is drawn to the fact that a possible consequence of incomplete details or a lack of immune protection is that you will not be able to take up your deployment.

    • The form includes tests and immunizations and must be filled in by your GP/attending physician.
    • We request the tests are performed within 3 months before the beginning of the internship.
    • Please note that under "department" you must state the subject for which you have applied.
      In addition, your full name as shown in your passport or identity card must be entered.
      Next to the doctor’s signature, he/she must also enter his/her name and stamp the form.
    • Please enclose the completed form including lab reports with your online application at least 6 weeks before the beginning of the Winter School.
