The mandatory curriculum internship corresponds to an essential period for medical education in which the apprentice, through supervised training in the health service, develops and improves competencies and knowledge of medical practice.

In this context, through the Mais Médicos Program (PMM) and the initiatives for the expansion of medical schools in Brazil, the medical course analyzed in this study, started its activities in 2015, starting to compose the set of courses guided by the new DCN. This article proposed to analyze the process of implementing the medical boarding school of the course, from the perspective of the students. This is a qualitative study, in which the data were collected through a questionnaire sent to the students of the course, with a total of 29 participants. The analysis of the data produced was performed by the dialectical hermeneutic technique. The categories of analysis were health care, health management and health education, which addressed topics about a) operational techniques, such as the correct filling of medical records, learning maneuvers and physical examination techniques and the communication of established hypotheses and sharing the therapeutic process with the patient; b) Integration between service, teaching and community, discussing the adaptation of the structure of health services to receive academics, perceptions about the number and quality of practice scenarios, students' performance in the health service and incentive to contribute actions in the context SUS; c) Structuring the boarding school, discussing the total workload of the stages, pointing out which casters demonstrated the largest and lower organization and what their evaluative methods were; d) Preceptoria, deepening about the performance of preceptors in the practical scenarios, the quality of preceptoria and communication between preceptors and students.
