Overview
Experience the eye-opening magic of India! During this 2.5-week program, students will journey through the medical culture of India and the cultural heritage of medical practices. The trip starts in Delhi, where the program will visit some of India's most famous landmarks and investigate British Imperialism's impact on medical practices today. Students will then travel to India Institute of Technology Roorkee to investigate medical needs, select appropriate solutions, and develop mini business plans. They will also be exposed to differences in pathways for medical device approval and work with Indian students. Lastly, spend some time in Rishikesh, where the Ganges River originates.
