Pediatrics Overall Goal and Curriculum

The overall educational goal of the Pediatrics Residency Program is to provide a safe and supportive learning environment that will promote the development of  excellent pediatricians prepared for independent practice in a medical world that is in constant evolution.   The  residents  will be well-trained and become competent in all six ACGME Competnecy Domains such that they  may have a successful  career in either general or  subspecialty pediatrics.   This will be accomplished by ensuring  a structured didactic program  taught by faculty dedicated to resident education.  The program will  facilitate learning and assist our residents in acquiring the information they need to  become knowledgeable pediatricians capable of optimizing  the healthcare of children.    Regardless of their career path, our graduates will have been trained to be advocates for children,  to practice with the highest ethical standards, to provide excellent medical care and to  be committed to life-long learning.
