Abstract
A Regional Health University is planned at the University of Linköping, Sweden. To evaluate new educational principles, a trial project was carried out in which medical and nursing students trained together in a two-week full-time course aimed at patient-oriented clinical social medicine and epidemiological field work in primary health care and involving a high degree of group activity and responsibility. The students' expectations concerning improvement in theoretical and applied knowledge and motivation for co-operation in future work situations were fulfilled. The students also enjoyed the way of working. The programme requires more time in planning and supervision than a traditional one.
