- Welcome to Nice University Hospital
Nice University Hospital is a French public institution and the leading provider of general hospital services for nearly a million and a half people in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region. It provides comprehensive, state-of-the-art services organized around its ambulatory care unit, full or weekly hospitalization, short-stay, post-acute care, rehabilitation and long-term care.
With more than 1,500 beds, 1,000 outpatients treated each day and 7,000 professionals, it is one of the largest health campuses in France.
With strong partnerships with health facilities in the Nice area, Nice University Hospital offers the utmost quality for complex care. Nice University Hospital is committed to excellence in patient care, medical research and innovative approaches and education.
A University Hospital with international partnerships
At an international level, Nice University Hospital participates in several European and global programs with major French university hospitals. Thanks to its advantageous location on the Côte d’Azur, Nice University Hospital benefits from multiple cross-border agreements and has signed international partnerships with more than 20 countries.
We focus our international strategy on training, consultancy and patient care
Training
Nice University Hospital has a major teaching mission, with a highly skilled support team of 650 senior medical doctors, including more than 80 professors. Around 500 residents are completing internship and up to 1500 students are ongoing trainings every year. Therefore, Nice University Hospital offers various training programs for medical and nursing professionals: from a week-long practical course to 2-year fellowship program, all trainings focus on developing the best professional skills and practices. Courses are designed to suit medical and nursing professionals’ needs and provide a unique opportunity for hands-on field experience.
Fellowship programs
Nice University Hospital offers extensive postgraduate training in specialty or subspecialty disciplines in highly specialized medical and surgical departments. Fellowship programs provide premium education and training for physicians and are overseen by every medical department.
These 2-year physician training programs are mentorship-driven and focused on both the acquisition and the refinement of clinical skills. They are addressed to foreign medical graduates seeking to pursue a career in a subspecialty discipline, and combine independent learning with modern clinical training and faculty mentoring. Clinical fellows may be involved in research and teaching and may provide clinical service as part of their training program. However, the primary goal of the clinical fellowship program is for the trainee to gain knowledge and skills in a particular discipline, not to provide service.
Nice University Hospital has created fellowship standards which all programs must comply with. These standards have been created to ensure that all fellowships offer high educational value. A fellowship certification is issued at the end of the training, reviewing and validating the qualitative and quantitative objectives detailed in each program’s handbook.
Here are the abstracts for all programs currently available :
- Bariatric surgery
