The Division of Orthopaedics at Children’s Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) funds a select number of Medical Career Design (MCD) Fellowships to allow recent college graduates the opportunity to explore many aspects of a medical career — research, clinical practice, education, advocacy and leadership.
Each MCD fellow spends two years as an essential member of our research and clinical teams, mentored by our thought-leading faculty from the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania. MCD fellows also work in our clinics as a scribe, developing a their medical knowledge, confidence in the patient-care setting, and insights into managing the challenges of a busy and complex clinical practice.
The program is open to graduating seniors and applications are reviewed on a rolling basis until April 1.
