What is the scholarship amount and what is included in it?

The scholarship amount equals half of the total price of a one week placement (550 GBP|815 USD|750 EUR) . We were able to generate a higher amount to support the talented students who would like to pursue their career in healthcare and instead of a chance for one student we decided to offer 3 scholarships. In one week placement you can get:

• Shadowing your mentoring team 25 hours per week minimum in the largest and most modern hospital in the Czech Republic in various specialties such as Anaesthesiology, Resuscitation and IC Medicine, Radiology and Diagnostic Imaging, Neurosurgery, Children' s Heart Center, Obstetrics and Gynaecology and many others
