If you love working with a young crowd of university students, in an international environment, in a leading position, read on!

The DoctorsinItaly Fellowship Program is a unique experiential learning program dedicated to students from all over the world on a path to becoming healthcare professionals, in both the human health and animal health environment.

In a world that is increasingly borderless, the next generation of young leaders in healthcare will need to build cooperation and trust across different cultures and backgrounds.

The DoctorsinItaly Fellowship Program enables undergraduate and graduate students to shadow healthcare professionals, in top-ranked government and private healthcare facilities across Italy.

The Fellowship combines clinical observation in Italy with cultural discovery experiences.

We create strong emotions, personal growth, professional development, cultural immersion, lifelong friendships, and a global community of current and future healthcare professionals.
