New opportunities for medical students in Lower Austria: DPU with scholarships!

Landhausplatz 1, 3100 St. Pölten, Österreich - The Danube Private University (DPU) in Krems/Wr. Neustadt, which has been offering complete medical studies since autumn, has quickly established itself as an attractive educational institution. In the winter semester, 120 young doctors started their studies, including 61 from Lower Austria, which underlines the possibilities for prospective doctors in the region. Governor Johanna Mikl-Leitner emphasizes: "This high number of Lower Austrians in Lower Austria also shows us that our hopes are justified ...". This development shows that the DPU and the health location of Lower Austria are based on a dynamic relationship that is based on mutual benefit, as noe.gv.at reported.

scholarships for prospective doctors

To ensure that the region will continue to have sufficient medical specialists in the future, the state of Lower Austria initiated a collaboration with the DPU and advertised five scholarships. The applicants were selected in an objective admission procedure and undertake to work in the region for five years after the specialist training. "Studying medicine at Danube Private University is another attractive offer," said LH deputy Stephan Pernkopf. This initiative is part of a comprehensive plan to strengthen medical care in Lower Austria, as the DPU itself emphasized in a statement. The director of the DPU, Robert Wagner, added that this is a significant measure for the training of qualified doctors and that local young people can take responsibility for their medical care, which is also a great opportunity for students.

The DPU, as the first private university with a medical faculty in Austria, offers a combination of teaching and research in a unique environment in the UNESCO World Heritage Site. It has made a name for herself internationally in the shortest possible time and also attracts numerous students from the region and beyond, which underlines the need and value of these newly created scholarships, as dp-uni.ac.at reported.
