Clinical Clerkship
The Clinical Clerkship consists of 6-week rotations in Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, Obstetrics and Gynecology, Pediatrics, Psychiatry and Surgery along with the Multi-Specialty rotations in Anaesthesia, Community Health Sciences, Emergency Medicine, Ophthalmology, and Otolaryngology. Students get an opportunity to pursue their own interests during the fourth-year Electives both within and outside University of Manitoba teaching sites. One afternoon per rotation, Clerkship students gather together for an Academic Half-Day. During the Clerkship, students also have the opportunity to pursue exchange programs with selected universities in other countries.
Following the Clerkship rotations, fourth-year students receive a course in Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) and organize a refresher course to prepare themselves for the Medical Council of Canada Qualifying Examination, Part I.
