The psychiatry residency curriculum is designed to progressively guide you in developing the clinical skills, knowledge base, and professionalism essential to becoming a well-rounded, empathic, and effective psychiatrist. Residents are encouraged to identify individual interests throughout training, and devote half-time effort to approved activities in PGY-4. Upon completion of the residency, you will be comfortable pursing independent clinical practice or fellowship training.
