Medical Internship Hospitals for MBBS at Zhejiang University
- If you want to study MBBS at Zhejiang University, then you had made a right choice. Because ZJU is one of the best universities in China and its MBBS program is accredited by many countries' medical councils.
- No matter you already is a medical student at Zhejiang University or still hesitating, you may want to know more information about the medical internship of Zhejiang University's MBBS Program. Read this article, and you’ll know all you want to know.
Intern Time & Duration
- The clinical internship is arranged in the 6th academic year. Regularly, it will start in early May or in the middle of May with 1 year of duration.
Requirements in China & Abroad
- If you want to do the internship in China, Zhejiang University can provide you with many great chances to do your clinical internship in its best affiliated hospitals. However, you must score 190 in HSK 4 or above and pass HSKK(HSK Speaking Test) Intermediate Level before taking the senior clerkship in China. But I don't think it will be difficult for you, because by then you will have already been studied in China for 5 years.
- Alternatively, if you want to do the internship in your home country, that will depend on the time of your registration. More specifically, if you are enrolled before 2018, you are allowed to do the clerkship in your home country and the tuition fee will be waived. But you have to submit an application to the university to get the green light. In addition, you need to contact the hospital by yourself and the hospital you chose should be qualified for providing the internship.
- Unfortunately, if you are in the class of 2018, according to the new rule of Zhejiang University, you will have no choice but to do the medical internship in China.
Comprehensive Theory Test
- After you finish your clinical internship, you will have to take the final examination of Theory Test and Clinical Evaluation. This test is of great significance because you can't graduate from the university and get your MBBS degree unless you pass the exam.
- The test time is usually scheduled in a week after the internship.
