Are you trying to do your internship and residency in the US?

If so, you'll have to take at least the USMLE Step 1, 2 CK and 2 CS...and apply for the Match.

No. The US does not offer partial internships. If your program offers elective time, you may be able to arrange that in the US, but with the issues of licensing, malpractice insurance, verification of credentials, etc. it would be extremely difficult to arrange without several months of work.

for that what shall i do?are there any universies in u.s. giving an opportunity to do internship?if at all what is the qualification?

If you are interested in doing an entire year in the US, please see here:

- http://www.ecfmg.org
- http://www.nrmp.org
- http://www.usmle.org

You will have to be ECFMG certified which requires passing USMLE Steps 1 and 2 (CK and CS), graduating from a medical school listed in the FAIMER directory and to submit the appropriate paperwork.

Residency positions are generally found through a centralized match service, the NRMP, but some find positions outside the match because they are advertised or they hear about them by word of mouth.

You must be eligible for a US medical license. You don't need a full and unrestricted one (and can't get one in most places as an intern educated outside of the US) but you must not have a record of ethical, moral, physical, psychological and/or educational troubles.

This topic is discussed extensively in the International Forum but I'll move it to the Internship forum where it seems better placed.
