Integrated
Residency Program
Purpose
The
Integrated Residency Program is an educational alternative in which a student
not only has the opportunity to complete fourth year rotations but also to
learn more about the responsibilities of a resident in the specified program,
providing additional focus to outstanding medical students in the field of
medicine they wish to enter. The program does not shorten the duration of
training and is not an acceptance into a residency program.
There
is a scholarship available upon successful completion of the program and that
is based upon individual performance. Integrated residency is separate from the
match process; the agreement to participate in the program is not legally
binding in regards to your future residency program. To enter a residency
program, students must still register for ERAS and NRMP, and apply to
program(s) in which they are interested in the spring match.
Departments
participating in the integrated residency program vary from year to year.
Historically, the following departments have taken part on a somewhat regular
basis:
