Introductory Position - Common Medical Department

Introductory positions in the specialty of internal medicine, at the Medical Departments, are available for occupancy on February 1 or March 1, 2027 (or by agreement).

The position is 1 year.

We hope that this position is the start of your career in an internal medicine specialty. The internal medicine specialties train you to be holistic and to have a broad professional base in your medical life. In addition, you can obtain specialty-specific competencies in the subspecialties.

As a rule, you are attached to each specialty for 6 months, as we want you to gain a high professional return from several specialties before you subspecialize. You are very welcome to indicate any preferences for the specialty in your application.

If you already know which specialty you want to train in, we can try to accommodate employment in 1 specialty.
