A great opportunity to learn
September 12, 2021by: Claire Swedberg - United StatesProgram: Virtual Global & Public Health Internship - MexicoI would absolutely recommend this program to others because it was a great opportunity to learn about other cultures and connect with people from other countries during a time where I could not leave the country. I loved the Spanish language learning aspect, and I loved the opportunity to learn from health professionals around the world on the same zoom call.
Experience was extremely valuable
August 26, 2021by: Warren - - United StatesProgram: Virtual Global & Public Health Internship - MexicoI would definitely recommend this program to others. I think this is a great program to learn about other cultures as well as how healthcare is handled in different countries. This program exposed me to new information and forced me to think in ways I had not previously thought. I believe the experience was extremely valuable.
A truly rewarding experience
August 20, 2021by: Matthew Trotter - United StatesProgram: Virtual Global & Public Health Internship - MexicoI would definitely recommend it, it was truly rewarding even in a virtual format. I learned a lot about the culture and the people, and I can only imagine that would be even better if I could learn it in person and in country. I really enjoyed learning about the culture and area of Oaxaca, what it was like to live there, about the people, the architecture, the food, the shops, the nature, environment, and attractions.
