Visiting Student Scholarship to Enhance Healthcare Workforce Diversity
The Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology & Reproductive Sciences at Yale School of Medicine is excited to announce a scholarship for eligible students to spend four weeks in an Ob/Gyn sub-internship or elective.

The recipient will enroll in a 4-week sub-internship between June – December and will be assigned a faculty mentor.
