This elective is designed for senior students who have chosen to pursue a career in Obstetrics and Gynecology, specifically to ensure the students meet the Level 1 ACGME defined milestones. Level 1 milestones are knowledge, skills, attitudes, and other attributes that ACGME expects that an incoming resident should have. Under the supervision of clinical faculty, students will obtain knowledge and skills that will help facilitate transition into residency.

Students will undergo a curriculum that addresses each of the ACGME Level 1 Milestones. The milestones will be taught and evaluated through simulation, clinical case scenarios, and case based learning.
