Welcome!
Are you interested in a career in obstetrics and gynaecology? This part of the RCOG website is specifically for students and recently-qualified doctors which we hope you will find useful and stimulating.
There are great job opportunities to be had in O&G and within the website you will find details about the training programme, the curriculum, exams and what sort of job you might end up doing at the end of training.
There are several events held at the RCOG and around the country during the year which are specifically aimed at students and junior doctors interested in a career in O&G and you will also find these listed here.

The RCOG is committed to high standards in specialist medical education: it works with other organisations including the Academy of Royal Colleges, Heads of Deaneries and the NHS to deliver a high-quality curriculum and training opportunities.
In January 2006, the RCOG published the report A Career in Obstetrics and Gynaecology - Recruitment and Retention in the Specialty setting out the challenges facing the discipline and specialty.
In addition to web-based information about O&G, we also have a new Careers Prospectus. If you would like to order a hard copy, please email careers@rcog.org.uk
