Rotation Schedule

We follow a 4+2+2 scheduling model, which allows residents to meet all ACGME program requirements for training over the course of their three years. The structure is as follows:

Weeks

1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
X X X X Y Y Z Z

X blocks will consist of call rotations (wards/critical care)
Y blocks will be ambulatory
Z will consist of internal medicine program requirements (such as geriatrics, neurology, emergency medicine, etc.), electives and vacation
