Hey guys,

I am a 24yr old Non-Trad student who is currently fulfilling his science/math requirements. International medicine/Working as a doctor in developing countries is something that deeply interests me; and as a result, was wondering about the following:

1) Does anyone know of legitmate internships to work/volunteer abraod? A google search reveals quite a few of them, but I was hoping someone here might filter a few for me.

2) If non-paid internships are the way to go, what is the best way to accumulate financial support for such a trip? Out of pocket? Funrasing? Grants/Scholorships?
