title: [Exchanges of medical students from Rennes/Erlangen-Nuremberg: various considerations on these exchanges within the E.E.C. framework].
abstract: The current political trends of the European Economic Community (EEC) have made it more desirable than ever before for medical students to be able carry out part of their training in medical schools other than their Faculties of origin. The authors examine successively: 1) The results of 20 years of twinning-between the Medical Schools of Rennes (France) and Nürnberg-Erlangen (W. Germany). A considerable number of syllabuses and examinations are now recognized as equivalent. So far, nearly 500 students have taken advantage of the possibilities of exchanges lasting a few months or even a full University year. 2) The propositions submitted by the Medical Schools of Rennes and Strasbourg have been selected from the 800 presented by EEC Universities as port of the Erasmus programme. For the whole of the EEC, 12 medical projects have been started up since october 1989. Among the other projects accepted were those of Bonn and Hamburg, Ovideo and Valence, Naples and Barri, Dublin, Coïmbra, Brussels, Copenhagen, Leyden, etc. 3) In order to strengthen the North-South axis of the EEC and to widen further the horizons of European medical students (even beyond Europe), the Medical Facilities of Rennes and of Alcalà de Henares (University of Madrid) have just defined syllabus and examination equivalences as Rennes and Erlangen did some twenty years ago.
