Our Community
The Study Buddy Program is designed for international students participating in the Medicine exchange programs. The aim of the program is to make the transition for exchange students into our curriculum as smooth as possible. Therefore, we match every incoming student with a student of our Faculty.
The program is organized by the LMU Medical Students Board (Arbeitskreis EMSA | MeCuMplus) and is open to interested students in full-time courses at LMU and its partner universities.
Sign up
If you wish to have a buddy you should tick the box "Please assign me a mentor, if possible" in your LMU online application. Your e-mail address will then be forwarded to your buddy so that they can get in touch with you about one or two months prior to arrival.
GAIA (Gemeinsam aktiv für interkulturellen Austausch) offers international full-time students of the LMU Faculty of Medicine a comprehensive longitudinal program consisting of orientation events, integration offers, professional support and exam preparation. For more information see: GAIA
