Fourth Year Medical Student Elective
The Cook County Emergency Department offers four week clerkships for fourth year medical students interested in a career in Emergency Medicine and/or a residency at our institution. Applications will be accepted through the Visiting Student Learning Opportunities starting February 24th, 2025. Contact Gina Wiley (gwiley@cookcountyhhs.org) with any questions.
Rotation highlights include 12 8-hour shifts in our busy urban emergency department, a didactic series specifically designed for the M4 student, and an invitation to our departmental conferences (M&M, etc) weekly. In addition to visiting students, Cook County is a site for a required M4 rotation for Rush Medical School. More information about the rotation can be found here.
