As a university hospital, the hospital trains its own medical students from UNESP through medical internships and bedside education. As a partner program of several German universities, such as the LMU in Munich, the FMB is actively involved in curriculum development for international medical education and is proud to offer medical students from all over the world, especially German medical students, the opportunity to practice in a Brazilian hospital Year Tertial or a Famulatur – regardless of existing university collaborations through the Med’oPolo program.
