Participating in a Medicine & Healthcare Internship in Nepal is a unique experience, wherein you will learn from some of the most skilled practitioners in the country. Internships in Nepal are based in and around Kathmandu and in the region of Chitwan. The facilities are generally quite basic when compared to facilities in the West. You will intern on social and health development projects focusing on providing medicine and healthcare to the underprivileged. This is a particularly important service in a country such as Nepal where the National Health System provides for only 21 percent of the population. Interns work at a variety of placements in hospitals and rehabilitation centers for children with disabilities in the Kathmandu Valley. This can involve a unique combination of worki...
Program Highlights
Live with a local host family who provides you with all your meals outside of normal working hours.
Keep occupied with plenty of fun things to do in Kathmandu and nearby Patan when you’re not volunteering: art, temples, architecture, bars, and cinemas.
Enjoy hiking or cycling in the surrounding area or take part in a number of adventure sports.
Visit our office in Kathmandu—where jostling crowds, rickety bullock carts, and noisy auto-rickshaws all contribute to the noise, character, and constant energy of its traditionally narrow streets.
Prepare for a challenging career in the medical and healthcare industries with an internship that involves hands-on work.

An unforgettable two weeks, both educational and enjoyable
by: SaanviProgram: Medical Experience in Nepal with Projects AbroadGoing to Nepal on the High School Specials Medicine trip was one of the best decisions I have made. The staff's coordination ensures everything runs smoothly. They will do whatever they can to make your experience as enjoyable as possible. You get your SIM cards and money changed the day after you arrive. Visiting the hospitals was very educational, and a good way to become more familiar with the medical field. In CMC, more freedom is given to volunteers to visit departments of their choice. Th...
My Projects Abroad medical internship was worth it...
by: Oren Petersen - AustraliaProgram: Medical Experience in Nepal with Projects AbroadMy 'Projects Abroad Medical Internship for Teenagers’ was a fantastic experience, along with 19 other young people from around Australia, New Zealand and Japan we participated in a supervised daily schedule of activities focusing on learning and cultural exposure. My goals were to have some clinical exposure, travel overseas to a developing country independently from my family, put myself outside my comfort zone, experience a different culture and to complete my Duke of Edinburgh Gold Residen...
Over the head
by: Kyusok KimProgram: Medical Experience in Nepal with Projects AbroadThe volunteer was very different from what I had expected. It enhanced my interest in medical education. My dream is to become a software developer while using physics and chemistry which are my two favorite fields in science. When I went to the hospitals we were able to watch actual patients and surgeries. When I first saw them it was my first time having to communicate with real patients who have their complaints. Since I never had enough interest to reach out to hospitals and medical faciliti...
