Back to MED4UFOR STUDENTS

Your curiosity could
take you somewhere new.

You might know you want to work in healthcare. You might just want to see what it’s like. MED4U gives you four days to explore, ask questions and discover possibilities you hadn’t considered.

GET CLOSER TO YOUR FUTURE

Don’t just imagine it.
Explore it.

01

Meet people doing the work.

Hear from healthcare professionals and Wits academics. Ask about their fields, university study and the routes that brought them there.

02

Try something new.

Take part in interactive, simulation-based learning. Explore healthcare through practical activities and teamwork, with guidance along the way.

03

Find what interests you.

Look beyond medicine alone. Discover how physiology, pharmacology, public health and sport and exercise medicine connect to the world of healthcare.

NO PERFECT PLAN REQUIRED

You don’t need to have
all the answers yet.

This is your chance to ask the questions.

What does studying Health Sciences involve? What kind of work would suit you? What do healthcare professionals actually enjoy about their fields?

Come with an open mind. Leave with more to think about, a better understanding of healthcare and new ideas for your next chapter.
