International Experiences - Impressions

We have collected here the impressions our students have had of their international experience. Some impressions are from our University of Sydney students who have travelled to our partner universities for an Elective or Independent Learning Activity. Other impressions come from students from our partner universities that have come to Sydney. Some impressions are long, some are short – all have had only minor editing in an attempt to maintain the students’ voice. They are all unique, some quite personal, all worth reading no matter where you choose to do your placement.

We hope that you enjoy reading about there (and here) and that this gives you just a hint of the international experiences - both professional and cultural - that you can have as a part of the Sydney Medical School whether as one of our medical students or as a visitor from our partner universities.
