Special Features
The University of Wisconsin-Madison Preventive Medicine Residency is grounded in a strong academic medical center with diverse community and public health partnerships. Residents starting without an MPH complete the degree during the first year. The second year is dedicated to practicum rotations, including, but not limited to, experiences with the Wisconsin Department of Health Services, UW Health Hospitals and Clinics, lifestyle medicine, and occupational and environmental health. Clinical work is integrated across both years at the Middleton VA Hospital and University Health Services. All residents receive individualized mentorship and engage in community-based public health practice throughout training.
