Acting Internships
The acting internship program at Lahey Hospital & Medical Center is designed to give medical students who are interested in urology exposure to our program. The acting interns function as members of the surgical team during the rotation while experiencing a rich educational exposure to both general and subspecialty urology. The acting internship not only provides valuable experiential learning but also serves a role in the evaluation of your candidacy within our application process. While students who successfully complete the acting internship may not be extended formal interview invitations during the match season, their performance will be carefully considered in our comprehensive ranking process.
Applications should be submitted to the Visiting Student Program at Tufts University School of Medicine.
For questions regarding the sub-internship, please email Program Administrator Joanne Messina or call 781-744-8762.
Lahey Urology Diversity Scholarship Program
An important principle of Lahey Hospital and Medical Center’s (LHMC) Division of Urology is to promote diversity within our program. Diversity can include but is not limited to underrepresented minorities, women, and LGBTQ+. Therefore, the Urology Diversity Scholarship Program was created to provide financial support to fourth-year medical students during their Tufts University School of Medicine (TUSM) Visiting Urology Acting-Internship at LHMC (URO408-LC). Students accepted for a clinical clerkship are eligible to apply for scholarships to help defray costs. To be eligible, students must be US citizens and attend an ACGME/OCGME medical school in the US. The scholarship awards $1,500.00 in financial support to be used for travel and housing costs.
