The RUSH Global Health Fellowship program provides a unique opportunity to impact global health issues while exploring sustainable solutions on a community level.

The one-year post-graduate Fellowship is located in Haiti or the Dominican Republic. Fellows have the extraordinary opportunity to work closely with the same community over their year of Fellowship, playing a critical role in care provision, relationship building, and program development.


The goals of the RUSH Global Health Fellowship are to:

  • Develop life-long leaders and advocates in promoting health equity locally and globally

  • Provide opportunities for service and learning in the areas of communicable and non-communicable diseases, social medicine, and systems of health care delivery in under-resourced populations

  • Prepare the Fellow for a career in global health and academic hospitalist medicine, with a focus on fellow-driven areas of interest.
