stands for “Dresdner Integratives Problem-/ Praxis-/ Patienten- Orientiertes Lernen”.

Lectures are retained to a reduced extent. Courses, internships and bedside teaching are integrated to an increased extent. New elements are: teaching in small groups in tutorials (8 to 10 students) under the guidance of a trained tutor, case discussions, self-study time for students, modern forms of teaching and learning (multimedia etc.), interdisciplinary teaching and new forms of examinations. All elements required by the new ÄAppO (Licencing Regulations for Physicians) are integrated within DIPOL®.
