Subject

A subject-specific sub-study of the Bavarian Graduate Study (BAS) is being carried out in cooperation with the Bavarian Competence Network for Medical Education. The service project comprises a survey of the previous examination year approximately one year after the third state examination.

Research questions

a) Is the medical degree programme fit for the future?

• Are future skills adequately taught?
• What scientific competences do students acquire in general and in the context of the doctorate?

b) What trends can be identified for the future of the medical profession?

• What are the professional ideas and plans of young doctors with regard to remaining in curative and/or scientific medicine, remaining in Germany or working part-time?
• How can doctors be attracted and encouraged to pursue an academic career?

c) What trends can be identified when comparing the surveys (2013/2014, 2018/2019, 2021/22 and 2025/26)?
