Abstract
In 1947, the Department of Postgraduate Medicine of the University of Michigan established a new system of resident education which made the facilities of the Medical Center available to selected community hospitals. The intent of the affiliations was to supplement the clinical teaching in internal medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, and surgery by offering additional work in specially designed courses at the University. Since 1965, a planning committee of representatives from the Departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology of the Affiliated Hospitals and the University Hospital and the Directors of Medical Education has met regularly to discuss problems of residencies in general and to develop a combined program designed to improve resident education in our own institutions. The functions of the committee include the identification of inadequacies, the implementation of corrective measures, and the development of experimental programs. The results of our first 32 months of operation are described.
