| Description: |
Join us to hear about opportunities to study abroad in Costa Rica. ICDS provides students interested in the field of health with the opportunity to gain knowledge and real-life hands-on experience on Costa Rica’s universal public-private mix health care system, ranked among the top 36 worldwide and as number 1 in Latin America, as well as different health care platforms in the region. In coordination with Hospital Clínica Bíblica and Universidad Latina de Costa Rica, this program offers students the opportunity to explore health care in a developing country and improve their Spanish speaking skills. Through practical courses and visits to healthcare facilities that integrate the country’s health system, participants learn about the unique healthcare model in Costa Rica and the way global public health issues unfold in the region. ICDS also provides several opportunities for students to meet, relax, and explore unique aspects of Costa Rican culture through planned group activities and field trips. These, combined with the on-site rotations and community work, give students ample opportunity to interact with locals, engage with the culture, and learn from one of Latin America’s most beautiful countries. |
