Curricula, career prospects and research activities by Faculty
While universities prepare their students for all kinds of professional activities that require higher education, they are not vocational training institutions. There are, however, three exceptions: medicine, pharmacy and certain branches of the Master's degree in psychology, which include internships and professional practice courses as part of their curriculum.
