    Abstract:
    In Austria emergency and disaster medicine is a young interdisciplinary subject. It is only a borderline discipline encompassing different medical subjects and was subdivided into emergency medicine for medical doctors only and first-aid for lay people and emergency technicians. In fact, since emergency medicine without first-aid can't be successful, the Department of Anaesthesiology at the University of Graz let all students of the medical faculty have a comprehensive education in the treatment of injured of acutely ill patients. According to the three steps of the study lectures and practices, all parts of first-aid, emergency and disaster medicine were offered. In spite of the short time since this has been running, we found a good acceptance and we hope to increase the interest evinced by medical students in our training programme.
