The UTMB Global Health Education Program trains medical students to work with marginalized populations at home and abroad. We provide cutting-edge interprofessional learning opportunities working with our long-term partners to provide safe, well-supervised, and meaningful international electives for our learners. UTMB works with field site partners in the Dominican Republic, Egypt, Kenya, and Peru. The collaborative projects our trainees participate in add value through scholarly work, which maintains UTMB's status as an innovator in global health education.
The Global Health Scholarly Concentration at UTMB is a great opportunity for medical students who are interested in having international training and education experiences, including overseas research, medical, and surgical electives. Students will learn more about how healthcare is delivered in areas around the world.
