Dear Visitor,

Thank you for your interest in the Medical Faculty of Heidelberg.

Your attention is invited to the following:
  

• Certificates/diplomas from foreign countries have to be checked for equivalence to the German university degrees before you can be accepted as a doctoral candidate by the faculty (for most countries a master's degree is accepted as equivalent, a bachelor's degree is not). As this takes a few months, you are kindly requested to forward copies of your documents to your supervisor before coming to Heidelberg. Applicants from China will additionally need the APS-certificate (document-check of the German embassy, you can switch to Chinese language in the upper right corner).

• This office is only responsible for the doctorate itself. For all other questions concerning studying at the University of Heidelberg, please visit the university homepage.

• Further information for foreign Researchers and Scientists
