The Medical Faculty of Heinrich Heine University (HHU) Düsseldorf is one of Germany’s most prominent centers for medical education and research. Originally founded in 1907 as a Medical Academy, it served as the cornerstone for the entire university's establishment. Today, it is recognized for its compact campus design, "team-based" teaching models, and global leadership in hepatology, cardiovascular science, and molecular medicine.
The HHU campus is famously compact, meaning the Medical Faculty, the University Hospital, and the Central Library are all within walking distance, creating a high-density "Medical Village."
