About Program
A Medical Elective Abroad with us is a unique opportunity for both medical students and professionals to experience delivery of health services in Kenya and Tanzania. As a medical student, you will be connected to an exciting opportunity with the healthcare team that delivers healthcare services with limited resources in medical supplies and technology. This satisfies your medical elective interest areas while meeting your medical school elective abroad requirements.
Undertaking a medical elective in a developing country allows you to see the medical field in a different perspective. Through supervision and mentorship, you will be able to garner supervised hands-on experience in various clinical elective specialties as well as shadow doctors delivering various medical services. This way, you emerge from the placement well versed with diverse treatment procedures in tropical diseases, such as Malaria and Typhoid, with improved medical skills, knowledge and aptitude growth.
