Weill Cornell's International Programs include research and health care in the developed and developing world, with ongoing projects in Brazil, Haiti and other countries. While most programs are are located in the developing world, the medical school has several relationships with medical schools and hospitals in Copenhagen, London, Munich, Paris, Vienna, and Sydney.

Students participating in the international programs in Mexico and in Central and South America are strongly advised to take a Spanish course before applying. Having some proficiency in Spanish is often a prerequisite for some programs in these countries.
