Are you a Dalhousie student in Health Professions, Dentistry or Medicine planning an education experience abroad? The Global Health Office is here to help make your experience as meaningful as possible.

We offer one of the most advanced pre-departure training sessions available to students in Canada. Students must complete two sessions before departure, which are scheduled for Saturdays February 22, March 5 and March 26, 2016, 9:00am-3:30pm. In Halifax, these sessions will be held in Tupper Room G36 and in Saint John, they will be held in DMNB Room 218.

The pre-departure curriculum has been developed to help make the most of your experience, no matter where you plan to do an elective. Topics covered will include safety, logistics, ethics and cultural competency. We have also included a pre-departure checklist on our website, to guide you as you organize your international educational experience.
