Residency Electives


Below is a list of the electives that are currently offered. The program is open to creating and exploring new electives proposals that will enhance the education of our residents. 

Please be aware:

  1. Each resident will only be allowed to complete ONE “away” rotation. “Away” means any rotation not located within ECU Health Medical Center/ECU or its immediate affiliates (sites that we have traveled to while training, i.e Cherry/VA etc)
  2. To propose a “new” elective, please complete this form: Generic Electives Proposal Template (docx)
    1. Plan ahead! It can take over 6 months to get an elective proposal approved through the REC and through GME.
    2. To be considered, proposed “away” electives will only be considered if they provide an educational experience that is not already offered here locally.
    3. Complete the template and turn it in to the program director
