Details of the Project (proposal)
Title of the project: Perceived need for and monitoring of international internships among european public health residents
Please provide a brief description of your proposed project:
International Internships represent strategic tools in order to implement future medical doctor’s education. Only few studies have assessed the immediate educational and personal benefits of International Internships for residents. Several articles have suggested that junior medical doctors feel a strong desire for an international experience. Although the number of exchanges programs is increasing, there are not detailed data about junior physicians experiences abroad and, above all, there is a lack of objective evaluations of International Internships contribution to their professional growth.
The mission of Euronet MRPH is to promote professional excellence among Medical Residents in Public Health in Europe by exchanging scientific knowledge and training opportunities and organizing common activities to promote and facilitate foreign internships in Europe for medical residents in Public Health. In order to address these tasks is important to have a full understanding of European public health’s residents towards international internships.
Objectives
To elaborate a standardized, comprehensive questionnaire to use in every country who has joined Euronet MRPH
To identify variability, within and between countries, on the perceived need for residents to undergo an International Internship
To monitor and gather details on previous and current International Internships among European public health residents
To analyze the reasons that stop European public health residents from doing an International Internship
To prepare a final document that could summarize strategies to implement International Internships among European public health residents
Proposed outcomes (scientific paper, presentation, grant application, report etc)
Scientific abstracts and congress presentations.
Report for Euronet and questionnaire for future use
Grant application to be considered by EuroNet
