The first informational Zoom meeting will take place on Monday, September 23rd at 7:00pm
Preceptorships are one-time learning opportunities for students in which they gain hands-on experience in a health care setting under the guidance of a physician experienced in their field. Preceptorships are available to all AED members. They are not point opportunities, but they are great resume builders and give you a head start on discovering which field of medicine you may be interested in pursuing.
If you are interested in participating, please contact aedpreceptorships@gmail.com with your name, classification (freshmen, sophomore, etc.), and the name of the top physician you are interested in shadowing. You may shadow multiple physicians a semester.
You must attend the mandatory Zoom meeting to participateÂ
Look out for the zoom link on the website, Instagram, or email aedpreceptorships@gmail.com
Meetings will take place the first week of every monthÂ
You can only shadow each physician one time.Â
You may be matched to shadow a max of three physicians each semester. Â
Only submit the matching form once a month.
Do not contact any physicians or organizations directly, unless given specific permission. Â
You must fill out the post-shadowing form, otherwise you will not be matched again.
