Yes, both unpaid and paid internships are valued in biomedical master's admissions. Admissions committees recognize practical experience - whether paid or unpaid - as evidence of your commitment, skills, and understanding of the field.

Clearly highlight your roles and achievements from these internships in your statement of purpose or resume. Emphasize any research or industry exposure, as some programs especially value research experience or scholarly work.

Requirements vary by university, so check how your specific experiences align with each program’s criteria.
