Psychiatry Clerkship

The Psychiatry Clerkship is a four-week required rotation in the third year of the College of Medicine and Life Sciences curriculum. The clerkship offers students a diverse and balanced clinical experience across the age spectrum in both inpatient and outpatient settings at 12 clinical sites.

Faculty and residents use a number of educational approaches including organized didactics, interactive group learning, and simulation experiences to ensure that our medical students graduate with a firm foundation in the fundamentals of treating individuals with psychiatric illnesses and emotional disorders. We also offer a third-year clinical elective and several fourth-year acting internships and electives in the areas of Addiction Psychiatry, Child & Adolescent Psychiatry, Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry, and Senior Behavioral Health.
