Medical Simulation Fellowship

The University of Arizona Department of Emergency Medicine is pleased to offer a one-year Medical Simulation Fellowship training program.

This non-ACGME accredited fellowship is designed to provide graduates of an emergency medicine residency program with additional training to become future leaders in medical simulation and education. This fellowship is integrated within the Arizona Simulation Technology and Education Center (ASTEC) at the University of Arizona College of Medicine as an educational training environment.

Our goal is to provide the tools and expertise necessary to run a medical simulation education and research program. The fellow will be trained in all aspects of medical simulation, developing the cognitive and technical skills necessary to employ medical simulation as a part of undergraduate, graduate, continuing, and inter-professional medical education.
