Learning in Practice

Practical phases make up a large part of your studies. The areas in which you can complete work placements are as varied as the areas of responsibility in Health Care and Nursing itself. You will prepare yourself for this in practical training courses. Here you can test your theoretical knowledge in a protected environment.

Your advantages in the practical phases:

  • Work placements take place in blocks.
  • In the sixth semester you have the chance to complete an internship abroad. We will support you in planning and organizing the work placements.
  • You will be accompanied by competent people in each work placement.
  • Learning groups, intervision and supervision help you to reflect on theoretically acquired knowledge, to network and to specialisation.
  • The accompanying practical training takes place at the nursing school Vorarlberg.
