From the Classroom to Patient Care
WVU residency and fellowship programs prepare you for practicing in the career specialty of your choice in an academic medical center, hospital, clinic setting or in private practice.
Fellowships
With hands-on experience from expert physicians in specialty fields, hospitals and clinics to refine your skills, and opportunities for career growth across the University, many of our residents and fellows choose to make West Virginia their home. Our fellows leave their training with incredible career options, whether that’s in academia or positions in top medical centers around the country.
WVU’s fellowship training programs offer broad clinical experience, with rotation opportunities at many of our WVU Medicine partner hospitals and institutes and institutes, from the suburban hub of Morgantown to the many rural community care centers around the state. WVU Medicine partners also offer training opportunities, including the Harpers Ferry Family Medicine program, Charleston Area Medical Center and Camden Clark Medicine Center.
