Exchange Program for International Students

Each year, we welcome over 120 foreign medical students and residents from many universities (including from:  Oxford University, UK: Case Western Reserve University, USA; Mie University, Japan; Innsbruck Medical University, Austria) at four-week (or longer) elective exchanges.

Throughout the elective program, visiting medical students are taught about endemic tropical diseases and get real-life experience at the university hospital during ward rounds under supervision of Thai doctors and nurses.  We also offer a one-week community and public health experiences.

In addition to the clinical experiences, electives will be impressed with the distinctive Thai culture, especially northeastern cuisine, dress, temple architecture, festivals and arts.  If you are a student or resident interested in attending an elective rotation at the Faculty of Medicine, please download and complete the application form and follow the application instructions.
