Taking an elective is a great way to get experience in obstetrics and gynaecology. We offer electives in General Obstetrics & Gynaecology (either at the IWK or in community sites), Operative Gynaecology, Gynaecology Oncology, Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Urogynaecology, and Reproductive Endocrinology.
Medical students from Dalhousie and other medical schools across Canada are welcome to apply for an elective with our department. To take an elective with us, you must first outline your learning objectives so we can assign you to the appropriate preceptors.
If you are a Dalhousie medical school student interested in arranging an elective, please contact:
