Transitional Medicine Residency Program
The Transitional Year Residency Program is designed to meet the educational needs of medical school graduates who have chosen a specialty which requires one year of general clinical education. This year is also an
option for students who are undecided about their final career choice, or who require one year of training prior to fulfilling military or public health obligations.
Co-sponsored by the Internal Medicine and Emergency Medicine Residency programs, the Transitional Year Residency seeks to provide its residents with a well-balanced educational program which will help prepare you to pursue your future career objectives by providing you with a solid foundation in clinical medicine.
The one year Transitional Year curriculum balances formal and informal education with outpatient and inpatient clinical rotations.
Residents are exposed to a variety of experiences in internal medicine and emergency medicine, as well as a variety of other medical fields.
The transitional program is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) and is administered by the Department of Medicine.
