NYU Langone’s Ronald O. Perelman Department of Emergency Medicine is excited to introduce our new fellowship, starting July 2025. The Medical Education Fellowship is designed for emergency physicians aspiring to advance their careers in medical education. This two-year fellowship provides an extensive curriculum aimed at developing skills necessary for roles such as program directors, clerkship directors, and academic leaders in the field of emergency medicine.

Fellowship Highlights

Fellows practice at multiple NYU Langone locations, including the Ronald O. Perelman Center for Emergency Services in Manhattan, NYU Langone Hospital—Brooklyn, and NYU Langone Health—Cobble Hill Emergency Department at the Joseph S. and Diane H. Steinberg Ambulatory Care Center, as well as NYC Health + Hospitals/Bellevue. These sites feature high-acuity emergency departments, a Level 1 Trauma Center, a freestanding emergency department, and comprehensive urgent care and telehealth services.

In partnership with Maastricht University’s Master of Health Professions Education (MHPE) Program, fellows engage in educational administrative and leadership training during the first year, assuming roles such as associate program director in their chosen domain: undergraduate medical education, graduate medical education (residency or pediatric emergency medicine fellowship programs), or continuing medical education and faculty development.

The second year focuses on educational scholarship, including content generation and completing a master’s thesis, leveraging collaborations with institutional programs such as NYU Langone’s globally recognized FOAM platform, CORE Emergency Medicine, the Institute for Innovations in Medical Education, the Program for Medical Education Innovations and Research Projects, and the Research on Medical Educations Outcomes group. Throughout the fellowship, participants engage in a variety of teaching methods, including didactic sessions, bedside instruction, and simulation-based learning, all within the Bellevue Emergency Medicine Residency Program and NYU Grossman School of Medicine.
