About Our Medical Education Fellowship


The Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center (BIDMC) Department of Emergency Medicine is proud to offer a one-year mentored fellowship in medical education. For those interested in obtaining an advanced degree (MEd, MPH), a two-year option is available. The fellowship focuses on learning theory, curriculum design, education-based research, simulation, assessment, feedback, and faculty development with the goal of producing the next generation of medical education leaders in emergency medicine. In addition to the fellowship requirements, the fellow will work 8-9 clinical shifts per month as an attending physician at BIDMC and its affiliated community hospitals during which they will directly supervise medical students and residents. BIDMC is an affiliate institution and primary teaching site for Harvard Medical School (HMS). Fellows will have an appointment of clinical fellow at HMS.

The medical education fellowship will prepare the fellow for an academic leadership role in medical education and provide them with the skill set to adapt to the continuously evolving educational landscape. Our fellowship graduates have secured leadership roles in undergraduate and graduate medical education at institutions across the country. The fellowship is approved by the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine (SAEM).There are four primary focus areas of the fellowship:
