PGY2 Pediatrics Program Design
Explanation of the Calendar Year
Rotations are each 1 month long and are open for adjustment based on the resident’s wants and needs. July is reserved for orientation, and December is primarily reserved for research work and attending Midyear Clinical Meeting, although there is the opportunity for a “mini rotation” based on resident interest. Each resident is required to complete a research project, with submission to a peer-reviewed journal, and a medication use evaluation.
