All clinical rotations are organized through The Faculty of Health Sciences, and students apply to SDU as regular exchange students.  
The following types of clinical rotations are available and can be combined to a maximum of 12 weeks. Ability to combine rotations depend on capacity and availability:
- Six weeks = 10 ECTS (Surgical or Medicine)
- Four weeks = 8 ECTS (Surgical or Medicine)

The examination is a portfolio assessment (pass/fail) based on 11 learning objectives for clinical training. The student is assessed on an ongoing basis during the clinical placement.
