International Sites

Residents in the global health track and fellows with an interest in global health may be eligible to participate in an international elective. This elective is typically one month in duration and takes place in the final year of residency or fellowship. The elective fulfills requirements that will be discussed during meetings with the global health leadership team. The goal is to match each resident and fellow with an international elective experience appropriate for the career and personal goals for each individual participant.

We have partner sites in:

Guatemala
Cambodia
Philippines
Lawrence, Kansas - Haskell Indian Health Center
Pending partnerships with sites in Ethiopia and Mexico

Additional sites and opportunities are possible on a case-by-case basis. We have had residents and fellows travel to 18 different countries within the last 10 years and continue to open new opportunities for international sites. A portion of your international elective is paid for by the GME department, and a competitive scholarship is available to help off-set the cost of the elective. All residents and fellows receive pre- and post- travel training.
