Universitätskliniken is "University Clinics" - plural. Would also be "Teaching Hospitals".
Schwerpunkt is central, pillar, medium.
Krankenhaüser is "hospitals" (plural)
---> central hospitals
mit über: with over
2000 Betten: 2000 Beds
Hope it helps!

University Medical Centers and Tertiary Referral Centers with upwards of 2.000 beds
A "clinic" is something quite different from a "Klinikum": the first is a subunit of a hospital, perhaps a department, while the second is a major medical center. A "teaching hospital" is a "Lehrkrankenhaus" and is not necessarily a medical center or a "Schwerpunktkrankenhaus". When you are talking about "Schwerpunktkrankenhaus" in US parlance that is a tertiary referral center (in trauma it's also known as a level III trauma center).

addendum
A "Schwerpunktkrankenhaus" does not have to be a tertiary referral center across the board but rather only in one or several departments; e.g. my hospital is "Schwerpunktkrankenhaus" in surgery and internal medicine but not in ENT, urology etc.
