Department of Orthopaedic Surgery Patricia A. Kolowich Visiting Student Scholarship
About our scholarship
The Department of Orthopedic Surgery at Henry Ford hospital is pleased to accept applications for the Patricia A. Kolowich Visiting Student Scholarship. The scholarship is designed to provide students with the opportunity to experience our orthopaedic surgery residency program as well as to live and work in the vibrant city of Detroit. We aim to expose students to various opportunities within academic medicine and to provide mentorship and networking from both our residents and attendings. We offer $1500 scholarships to three visiting medical students to help offset the costs of travel and housing associated with this rotation.
About our rotation
Students will complete a four-week rotation within our department. This rotation typically consists of two weeks on the trauma or joints service and two weeks on another subspecialty service, based on student preference. During the rotation, students are expected to participate in surgical cases, outpatient clinic, didactics, and rounds. Students are also expected to take overnight call with the residents. The call responsibilities will be divided among all of the 4th year medical students rotating in the department. Each student will also give a 10-15 minute case-based presentation with a faculty mentor during department’s educational conferences.
Application requirements:
This scholarship is open to all rising 4th year medical students applying to do an away rotation with the Henry Ford Department of Orthopaedic Surgery.
Students applying for this scholarship must also apply for and be accepted to complete a 4-week rotation within the department. Scholarship applications are due by May 1. Recipients will be notified via email. Please see the link below to apply.
