Notes
Please note that re-dating the clerkship confirmation is a violation of existing laws and is therefore not possible. Furthermore, clerkships (see above) begin exclusively on the indicated days and last two, four, or six weeks. This regulation applies without exception to all students.
Clerkships at the MedUni Vienna always comprise an even number of weeks, begin on the first working day of the week and end on the last. 15- or 30-day clerkships are only possible within the framework of a 4- or 6-week clerkship.
