A Complete OB-GYN Educational Experience

The Department of Obstetrics and Gynecology at UNMC offers a comprehensive and immersive educational experience for third- and fourth-year medical students. Through a blend of didactic instruction, online modules, simulation-based training, and hands-on clinical rotations in both inpatient and outpatient settings, students gain a deep understanding of women’s health care across the lifespan. The M3 clerkship introduces core concepts and clinical skills in obstetrics and gynecology, while the M4 clinical specialty track provides advanced opportunities to explore subspecialties, refine diagnostic acumen, and engage in patient-centered care alongside experienced faculty.
