Military Fellowship Opportunities

Advance your career through Emergency Medicine fellowships

The University of Colorado and Denver Health offer Emergency Medicine fellowships designed to build on the experience and goals of military physicians. With a focus on combat casualty care in future battlefield environments, our programs prepare physicians to lead in military settings while developing deep expertise in civilian healthcare systems. Training emphasizes high-acuity, complex care alongside leadership development that translates across both operational and hospital environments.

With more than 20 years of experience training military emergency physicians, we are proud to support a diverse community of learners. Fellows benefit from close collaboration with experienced faculty and exposure to varied clinical and operational settings. Our programs have also contributed to the training of Department of War medics, including SOF Medics and Navy Corpsmen, across multiple subspecialties.

UCHealth has expanded its commitment to military training through a sustainment and training platform at Memorial Hospital in Colorado Springs, supporting active-duty Army and Air Force emergency physicians and surgeons.
