Clinical Electives
If you wish to do a clinical elective, you will need to have completed at least four years of medical training.
Internships can last up to a maximum of 4 weeks per department, with a maximum of two departments per student. Placement is always subject to availability in the departments.
Take into consideration that you will need to arrive at least five days prior to the start of your elective. A mandatory MRSA test will need to be done here at our institute. External MRSA tests will not be accepted.
Most departments have a Dutch language requirement (C1 level). If you do not speak Dutch, you will not be able to find an exchange at one of these departments of Erasmus MC. See a list of departments below.
