Global Medicine Pathway Requirements:
1. Complete the seven Online Global Health Courses - these are self-paced and you can do the material over the course of your residency.
2. In-Person Global Health Course (offered each May - we strongly recommend you do this before your international or local rotation).
3. Participate in a Global Medicine rotation at an approved site (international elective or approved domestic rotation) during residency.
4. Complete a research, educational, or advocacy project focused on global health (research, poster presentation, case presentation, update at a GMLS lecture, or discuss other options with mentor/global health chief resident).
5. Meet with Global Medicine Program Directors during 1st or 2nd year
Strongly Recommended:
1. Annual check in with the Program Director or Associate Program Director to talk about your plans and goals.
2. Choose a continuity clinic that serves globally mobile populations (CIH, CUHCC, HP Midway). This may not be available to all residents based on availability.
3. Take the certificate examination from American Society of Tropical Medicine and Hygiene (may be during or after residency). May be limited by cost of examination, please discuss with global medicine program coordinator.
4. Select a mentor who is active in global health work or research and meet with them at least 2 times per year.
5. Attend the Global Medicine Lecture Series events over your residency - these events are good ways to network and build community!
