The Project Healthcare Summer Volunteer Program is an immersive clinical and educational program available to U.S. and international undergraduate students who are not enrolled in medical school. Offered through NYU Langone’s Ronald O. Perelman Department of Emergency Medicine, Project Healthcare aims to inspire participants to become more interested and engaged in the field of healthcare and emergency medicine.
Project Healthcare is offered every summer, and students may participate in Manhattan, at NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue or in Brooklyn, at NYU Langone Hospital—Brooklyn.
Applications are encouraged not only from students with a strong interest in healthcare (aspiring doctors, nurses, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, clinical psychologists and psychiatrists, and clinical social workers, for example), but also from students who are uncertain about whether they wish to pursue a career in healthcare.
Project Healthcare at Bellevue is a very demanding summer program that requires serious commitment from participants. Applicants must have completed at least one year of college by the program start date The program lasts for 10 weeks, typically beginning in June and ending in August. Participants must be present for the duration of the program.
