The Pre-Health Professions Advising Center Staff is pleased to announce the
opening of applications for our Clinical Rotation Internship for spring
semester, 2015! 

 

The LASC 493 (3 units), "Philip Carter, MD Memorial Clinical Rotation
Internship" is designed for students intending to apply to medical school
during the current application cycle, meaning those planning to start their
program in 2016.  If you are not in your third year at The University of
Arizona or beyond, then you would not be in the 2016 application cycle.
Through this internship, students have the opportunity to experience
hospital, specialty, and group practice settings, develop mentoring
relationships with health care professionals, explore career options, attend
lectures to learn about important health care issues and prepare for the
application to medical programs.

 

COURSE OBJECTIVES:

 

To further explore your career goals by talking with doctors and other
health care professionals whose own career paths are congruent with your
interests.

 

To learn how major health care issues are manifested within the health care
setting, i.e. professionalism, ethics, health care disparities and special
populations.

 

To observe and begin to develop communication and empathy skills that are
fundamental to effective patient care.

 

To prepare for writing the personal statement required in the medical school
application.
