Description

The summer biology internship in Austria is an excellent opportunity for students who desire to pursue the field of medicine. As part of the program, students will be assigned to the organ transplant team where they will have the opportunity to not only observe such surgeries, but also actually participate and assist during the procedure. Other possible specialties during this program include plastic surgery, orthopedic surgery, obstetrics and gynecology, and urology depending on availability. The selected students will travel to Graz, Austria and meet with the organ transplant team and learn how to prepare for and assist in surgery. The purpose of this program is to offer aspiring medical students a direct look into the field of medicine in order for them to determine where they could fit best in this field. Students will learn how to draw blood, suture, and practice sterile technique. Additionally, students will be able to attend conferences or lectures offered to the medical students in the hospital.
