Graduate medical education is one of the central missions of Oregon Health & Science University. Graduate training programs are offered in virtually all fields of medicine, as well as oral/maxillofacial surgery.
OHSU and the Veterans Affairs Medical Center are the major clinical teaching facilities of OHSU for undergraduate and graduate medical education. The patient care and teaching programs at the University and the VAMC are under the direction and supervision of OHSU faculty. House staff participate in the care of patients in these hospitals and gain additional experience in community hospitals, which have affiliated teaching programs under the direction of the OHSU School of Medicine.
The Office of Graduate Medical Education coordinates house staff appointments and assignments. The office also assists in assuring excellence in the training programs and in serving prospective, current and past house staff.
All graduate medical education programs offered by OHSU are approved by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education or other accrediting bodies or boards specific to respective programs.
Detailed information regarding graduate medical education for a particular program or residency can be obtained by contacting the appropriate program director or coordinator.
A number of clinical and research fellowships are available. Applications are submitted directly to the department chairs or the designated program directors.
