Independent Global Health Opportunities
New Ohio Student Travel Policy (Domestic & International):
51社区 has approved a new Student Travel Policy(opens in a new window), designed to manage University-affiliated student travel and support the safety of our student travelers.
This policy defines student travel as taking place over 100 miles from the student鈥檚 campus of departure, including an overnight stay, and/or taking place outside the state of Ohio. For eCampus students, their campus of departure is defined as their home. For medical students on clinical rotation, their campus of departure is defined as the site of their clinical rotation.

Where to Find Global Health Opportunities
The Global Health Initiative initiative and the Office of Global Opportunities website provide information on all OHIO faculty directed study abroad programs and links to information on affiliated third party provider organizations that offer study abroad, exchange, work, internship and service learning experiences. Several of these third party programs offer public health, global health and other community health opportunities. You can find more information on Non-OHIO programs, volunteer opportunities, internships, independent study, research or OHIO affiliated travel here. All OHIO student education related travel including internships, volunteer opportunities, and research must be registered with the Office of Global Opportunities.
