NEW! Global Health Fellowship

WVU will offer a new Global Health Fellowship program starting in July 2025. This one-year, immersive experience provides a unique opportunity to rotate through resource-limited settings across the globe, including Bolivia, Ghana, Uganda, and the Philippines with rotation sites focusing on different themes and areas of impact. We are partnered with a non-profit organization that is integrated into the local health systems. Fellows will have the opportunity to engage in capacity-building initiatives, quality improvement projects, and other efforts that align with their training. They will work closely with local teams to ensure projects meet community needs and promote sustainable impact. Each project will follow best practices in global health, ethics, and partnership.
