On-campus residencies are an important component of the LGBT Health Policy and Practice Program as they allow students to have an interactive and personal experience with one another outside of the virtual classroom. Residencies expose students to a host of multidisciplinary faculty from GW and other top-level institutions, along with prominent guest faculty from the health care and policy fields.
Over the course of several days, students engage in panel discussions, workshops, outings and networking opportunities with leaders in relevant fields. Students can also take advantage of the benefits of convening in the nation’s capital, often to meet with politicians, policy makers and leaders in the health care industry.
