Special features
Architectural concept
The 32-meter high building with its characteristic ceramic façade made of red glazed ceramic rods sets a distinctive accent and acts as a counterpart to the neighboring university hospital.
Combining theory and practice
The proximity to the university hospital enables an optimal connection between theoretical education and clinical practice — a central component of the Augsburg model study program in human medicine.
