Global Health Residency Track

The University of Wisconsin-Madison Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology is committed to providing relevant skills and training for our residents who are interested in working in low-resource communities locally or abroad. We joined with the UW-Madison Global Health Institute and several other departments in the School of Medicine and Public Health to develop an interdisciplinary global health residency curriculum, to ensure that residents across our system have access to high quality training. Successful applicants to the UW Ob-Gyn Global Health Residency Track will enjoy protected time each year for a week-long curriculum alongside residents from other departments. During their third or fourth-year elective time, global health residents will complete a rotation in a global health setting, where they will be mentored and supervised by local and UW Department of Ob-Gyn faculty, giving them an opportunity to put in practice what they’ve learned over three years of training.
