Administrative Fellowship Program
The Administrative Fellowship program is a critical component of our strategic plan goal to “attract and retain top talent in a culture that values innovation, excellence and the highest level of scholarship.”
The fellowship is a two-year experience that provides select aspiring healthcare leaders with an unparalleled experience based in either an academic medical center, Northwestern Memorial Hospital, or a community hospital, Northwestern Lake Forest Hospital. Graduates of the Administrative Fellowship program will have developed the skills and attributes necessary to excel as leaders in the healthcare field.
Administrative Fellows interact with the management team, medical leadership, campus partners and are exposed to all aspects of healthcare operations. At the end of the program fellows should have gained an understanding of clinical operations, support services operations, hospital finance, community relations, and government relations.
