Science University continues to experience growth and success. Built
on a strong foundation, the department strives to excel in the areas

The faculty of the department will continue to look at new opportunities
to improve our service in each of these key areas.
ObGyn Education Programs
Our mission is to provide the highest quality education in womens
health care. This effort is focused in the 6-week required third year
core clerkship in obstetrics and gynecology. However, our faculty is
involved in womens health education throughout the four-year medical
school curriculum. Our goal is that every student graduate from OHSU
with the basic knowledge and understanding of womens health to
enable them to provide outstanding care for their women patients.
