Medical Internship & Observership for Students and Graduates

An observership offers a structured, short-term learning experience within a clinical environment for individuals seeking firsthand exposure to medical practice without participating in patient care. Designed for students and aspiring healthcare professionals, the program allows participants to closely observe physicians and medical teams as they carry out daily responsibilities in hospital and specialty settings. Through guided shadowing, participants gain insight into clinical decision-making, professional conduct, and hospital operations, helping them better understand how healthcare systems function in real-world contexts. Unlike internships or clinical electives, this program maintains a strictly observational role, ensuring compliance with ethical and legal standards while providing meaningful educational value. Participants are placed in specific departments aligned with their interests, enabling focused exploration of medical specialties and informed career planning. This observership is ideal for those preparing for medical school, residency applications, or future clinical training who wish to build foundational knowledge and professional awareness.

A Guide to Internships Abroad in Mumbai

Popular Internships in Mumbai

There are two distinct faces of this western Indian city: the skyscrapers and the slums. As the epicenter for finances, fashion, and film, those who are looking to intern in the high rises can get started climbing the corporate ladder. On the other hand, interns looking to work in medical fields or social work field can also find plentiful placements on the ground as well. 

The first thing to consider is how much time you have to devote to an internship abroad in India. Internship abroad in Mumbai are available on both a short-term or long-term basis, ranging from a month or so and usually up to a year. If graduation is looming, but you’re still working towards your degree, summer internships are also available and popular among students. Remember some internships are only a part-time gig, while others require a full on 40-hours-a-week commitment.

Mumbai is brimming with social work opportunities due in large part to the unfortunately high number of slums and impoverished citizens. This also makes medicine a popular field to intern in with availabilities spanning from nursing to nutrition to infectious and tropical diseases. However, if you’re looking to take a more corporate path, Mumbai is buzzing with several new startups and large corporations for those interested in business.

The last thing to consider when sorting out the details of your internship abroad in Mumbai is distinguishing between a paid and unpaid internship. In today’s job market, candidates vying for top positions are finding it increasingly competitive. Hands-on experience and acquiring new skills learned through internships often provide rising college graduates with a huge advantage. If the experience alone comes with promises of a future position, then the ramen dinners may be worth it. If not, find one that will pay you in more than experience.

Program: Women and Children’s Shelter Internships

10

Children and women are being exposed to so many risks, like emotional, psychological, sexual, and physical abuses. While society are doing its best to address these issues, there are still a handful of cases left unheard and unresolved. In my internship, I was tasked to answer hotline calls from abused women and children, interact in their therapy sessions, and even organize parties for the children in the shelter. These kids are so adorable and I could not bear the fact that some people are finding it easy to resent them. At the outset, before we started our internships, we are trained by licensed guidance counselors and psychologists and told us what to and not to do. I learned a lot.
