CITY FELLOWSHIP DIRECTORY · TIER A

Orthopaedic Fellowships in Barcelona

Barcelona's directory combines university-linked courses, hospital fellowship programmes and society-host placements. Hospital Clínic and University of Barcelona routes, ICATME–Dexeus knee and foot programmes, and Sant Joan de Déu paediatric training have different curricula and admission processes. Check the academic year, tuition or funding, awarding institution and permitted clinical role for each. A university master's title, hospital training stay and employed clinical fellowship should be evaluated on their own published terms.
