University of Pittsburgh Undergraduates
Pitt undergrads must apply to the Office of Medical Education shadowing program where we offer a single shadowing experience. Please contact shadowing@medschool.pitt.edu.
Non-Pitt students
Outside students have the opportunity to observe our faculty during a single emergency medicine shift. Shifts are 4 hours in length and can take place at any of our four main hospital sites - UPMC Presbyterian, UPMC Mercy, UPMC Shadyside, and UPMC Magee-Women's.
Required paperwork and orientation session must be completed before any shadowing opportunity can be scheduled. There is limited availability during certain months. Please contact Alexis Morris (morrisac@upmc.edu) for more information or with questions.
Our department does not offer shadowing with Advance Practice Providers; please see below for an alternative.
