STUDY ABROAD, MAKE A
DIFFERENCE HERE
“
Whether you eventually hope to
practice medicine in another part of
the world or you just want to gain a
broader perspective on health, disease,
and health care delivery, the Heritage
College encourages students to
participate in global health programs.
Conducting research and receiving
clinical training in international settings
often changes the way our students
approach their studies—and ultimately
the way they practice medicine
upon graduation.

“I was able to participate in a medical Spanish program in Ecuador
during the summer between first and second year. I hope to do
even more rotations abroad during my fourth year of medical school.
These connections and opportunities have really allowed me to grow
and expand my knowledge of medicine, language, and culture.”
