Expand your medical/health sciences knowledge base and gain exposure to a different health care system through a customized international medical internship! Compare your formal education and training with the Chinese practices, blending Western and Oriental practices. Placements are typically in local hospitals, clinics or medical centers and allow exposure to a wide range of clinical practices, depending on your background and interests, including surgical, neurological and pediatric departments. You will be able to observe and shadow various health professionals and/or assist in translation and administration.
No Chinese language background? No problem! This program caters to English speakers and will place you in a primarily or exclusively English-speaking environment. The program also offers extensive support and cultural immersion services, allowing you to fully appreciate the amazing environment you're living and working in.
