At the graduate level, these educational objectives are:

• to train the graduate to perform the role of consultant obstetrician and gynecologist to general practitioners and other specialists, consistent with the standards of the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology
• to impart research skills and provide research opportunities
• to ensure that each resident be given introductory training and insight into the subspecialties of gynecologic oncology, maternal-fetal medicine, and reproductive endocrinology
