Emergency Medicine

What to Expect

Our Simulation Fellows play an active role in medical student and emergency medicine resident education, leading simulation sessions, contributing to assessment and remediation, and collaborating with multiple specialties to design and implement simulation scenarios. Through hands-on experience, fellows develop key skills in curriculum design, program evaluation, debriefing, and gain insight into the operational, administrative, and financial aspects of simulation center management. Additional opportunities include attending national educational programs and conferences, supporting the development of well-rounded expertise in simulation-based education and academic emergency medicine.

Program Eligibility

Applicants must be board-eligible or certified in emergency medicine and within 5 years of completing residency.

Program Details

The Simulation Fellowship is a one-year program designed to create leaders in medical simulation and emergency medicine education. Fellows receive a full-time faculty appointment in the Department of Emergency Medicine at the University of Maryland School of Medicine and divide their time between direct patient care and program-based education, resulting in a well-rounded and immersive training experience.

How to Apply
