Study Abroad

Many students and residents choose to include a one-month international trip to a low- or middle-income country as part of their medical training. This can be an enriching, challenging, and life-changing experience. This document provides sites used by our learners in the past and/or that have solid reputations for providing excellent clinical experiences with good oversight. You are not restricted to these sites, however. For those interested in formalized training, including fellowships in global health, a listing appears at the end of this document. Typically these fellowships are completed between the third and fourth year of medical school.
