About Universitätsklinikum Tübingen

Founded in 1805, the University Hospital Tübingen (UKT) is one of the leading centers in German academic medicine and, with its 17 university clinics, institutes, and centers, contributes to the successful combination of high-performance medicine, research, and teaching. As a maximum care hospital, the UKT is known far beyond the region. Around half a million patients are treated annually. We set standards in research, teaching, and patient care. This aspiration and the associated responsibility shape our daily actions. Through innovation and sustainable development, we create an attractive environment for top-level medicine and strengthen our position as a nationally and internationally recognized medical location. More than 97 percent of our inpatients would recommend the UKT. More than 11,000 employees with diverse responsibilities work closely together at the UKT. Whether in research, teaching, clinic, or administration – here, we work hand in hand for the well-being of people. We respond to the commitment of our employees with appreciation, trust, and security. The UKT is a reliable employer that stands for job security, attractive development opportunities, and long-term partnership. Lifelong learning is important to us. Therefore, we support our employees in initial and continuing education. The hospital's own Academy for Education and Personnel Development (ABiP) offers numerous continuing and advanced training opportunities. With around 800 trainees in 18 different professional fields, we are also the largest training institution in the region.
