<p>Does an internship at a hospital count as a research experience?</p>
<p>Well … does your internship involve research?</p>
<p>An internship could be just working at the hospital in administrative areas. Or it could be comprise technical work. Or it could be actual “research”–where one is actively pursuing the results of some sort of investigation/experiment–with patients/actual samples of whatnot. Usually, however, “research” is conducted in a lab setting at least part of the time; for high school medical research, usually at a medical school and not in the hospital itself.</p>
<p>So unless you are really researching something–collecting and analyzing data, making hypotheses/conclusions, etc.–then, no, an internship is not a research position.</p>
<p>thanks, once again!!</p>
