About the Program
The Medical Education Fellowship develops leaders and innovators in both undergraduate and graduate medical education.
Housed in the Department of Emergency Medicine, our two-year medical education program prepares physicians for careers in academic emergency medicine with an education focus such as core faculty, clerkship director, residency director or institutional educational officials. The fellowship includes financial support toward obtaining a Master of Education.
The core pillars of this program include the following:
- Leadership
- Curriculum design
- Instruction and assessment
- Scholarship
- Career development
Fellows provide clinical care for approximately 60 hours per month, supervise residents and medical students and hold appointment as clinical instructors at the VCU School of Medicine (SOM). Additional moonlighting is also available.
