FB5 – Faculty of Medicine

FB5 - Medizinische Fakultät

The Medical Faculty was one of the four founding faculties of the University of Münster when it was established in 1780. After the university closed in the turmoil of the post-Napoleonic era and its re-establishment (1902), the "new" medical faculty followed in 1925, delayed by the First World War. Still comparatively young, it is now one of the largest and most research-intensive medical faculties in Germany. At the Westphalian Wilhelms University it also forms Faculty 5 - Medicine.
