Graduate Medical Education
The path toward becoming an osteopathic physician doesn’t end once a medical student receives a degree. Through the Heritage College’s many clinical partners, graduates pursue a host of residencies, from family medicine, pediatrics, emergency medicine and anesthesiology to surgery and obstetrics/gynecology, with an emphasis on primary care specialties.

Supporting Our Graduate Medical Education Partners
Clinical Education Network
The Heritage College supports ACGME-accredited residency programs through the Clinical Education Network. Recognizing that a strong GME learning environment influences the development of our medical students, the CEN strives to support and enhance the shared UME-GME clinical learning environment as a key strategy to assure the presence of strong training opportunities for medical students, residency partners and clinical faculty.

To help us define and resource the types of support our Ohio clinical education partners are seeking, we've developed a GME Support Needs Assessment to guide our process. The assessment focuses on three key areas of support: 1) New GME Development; 2) Existing GME Program Development and Support; and 3) Osteopathic Recognition. If you are looking to connect with the Heritage College in any of these key areas, please complete the needs assessment. We are eager to learn more!
Goals for Osteopathic Integration in Graduate Medical Education
- Helping hospital residency programs successfully make the transition to ACGME residencies with osteopathic recognition.
- Promote faculty development in osteopathic principles and practices to residency faculty through a variety of educational opportunities.
- Promote resident development in osteopathic principles and practices through the creation and offering of educational modules designed to highlight specialty specific information for osteopathic integration.
