在当地医院进行医学预科实习
摩根·希尔16年
实习/临床经验
我在读医学预科，主修 医学生物学 我希望毕业后能去医学院. 我也是 辅修艺术治疗. 我最近 在国外学习 在摩洛哥丹吉尔. 我在国外的时候, I wanted to find an internship that would allow me to continue working with chronic pain. 起初，这有点困难和挑战. I had to visit various clinics around Tangier before finding a good fit for me. I finally decided on Croissant Rouge, which is somewhat like the American Red Cross.
Doing my internship at Croissant Rouge allowed me to get an inter国家 perspective of chronic pain. 在那里工作的时候，我真的必须打破自己的舒适区. I saw myself pushing my language abilities as I continuously asked questions. 当我试图掌握概念的时候, I often had to ask for things to be explained in a different way or in a different language. Working in this environment allowed me to learn in a much more intense way than I ever had before. This experience allowed me to open my doors to new perspectives and new ways of learning. I think that UNE’s global approach and global initiative are allowing students to push themselves to go abroad to experience other cultures, 拓宽他们的视野, 独立思考. The things I have learned from this experience as well as my openness to new perspectives are things that I will hold with me for the rest of my life.
