Overview
Our faculty are active as teachers and mentors in all educational settings including fellowship training, continuing medical education, and research efforts across UW Campuses.
We provide fellowship programs in Allergy and Immunology, Infectious Diseases, and Global and Rural Health. We offer research training or participatory experiences for senior fellows, residents, medical students, and undergraduates.
The University of Washington Office of Graduate Medical Education (GME) oversees and provides support to the residency and clinical fellowship training programs accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME), as well as other post-graduate training programs. The GME Office is dedicated to providing residents and fellows with the best educational experience possible and a positive work environment.
We provide opportunities for training as a core component of our mission. In addition to our fellowship programs, we offer clinical and research training programs for medical students and residents.
