- Candidate of Medicine (Latin: candidatus medicinae (male), candidata medicinae (female), abbreviated cand. med.) is an academic degree awarded in Denmark, Iceland, and Norway following a six-year medical school education. Medical students in Germany, Austria and Switzerland carry this title during their medical studies before being awarded the degree of Dr. med. (Germany) or Dr. med. univ. (Austria) after defending a doctoral or diploma thesis before a jury. Defence of a thesis is compulsory at some medical faculties in Germany and can be prepared during or after medical studies, while in Austria it is compulsory to defend a thesis before completion of the medical curriculum. The degree can also be written as candidatus/candidata medicinæ (Æ instead of AE). In Danish and Norwegian, the degree is, similar to other Latin degrees, generally not capitalized (i.e. it is written as candidatus/candidata medicinae and abbreviated cand.med.). The abbreviation of the Latin term is almost exclusively used, i.e. they are not translated. The term candidate refers to those running for public office in Ancient Rome. Traditionally, many doctors (and lawyers) in Denmark and Norway would hold positions directly appointed by the King. In Denmark and Norway, a higher doctorate of medicine is known as dr.med. (doctor medicinae, literally, Doctor of Medicine). This degree is obtained by those furthering their career in research and is not required or usually obtained by those only working in clinical medicine. Formally it is not, however, required in Denmark to hold a cand.med. degree to acquire the doctorate. In practice most Doctors of Medicine are also Candidates of Medicine. In Denmark, there are currently two research degrees that can be obtained in the field of medicine, the ph.d., which is not officially a doctorate (although being called the lesser doctorate informally) and the doctorate, dr.med. (informally the higher doctorate). Dr.med. was abolished in Norway in 2008 and replaced by the PhD. (en)
- Candidatus medicinæ (för män) eller candidata medicinæ (för kvinnor), förkortat cand. med., är i Norge och Danmark titel för en person som avlagt medicinsk ämbetsexamen. Medicinsk ämbetsexamen motsvarar vad som internationellt kallas Medical Doctor (MD). I Sverige är motsvarigheten läkarexamen eller enligt äldre bestämmelser (före 1969) medicine licentiatexamen. Denna artikel om utbildning, didaktik eller pedagogik saknar väsentlig information. Du kan hjälpa till genom att lägga till den. (sv)
