The UCI Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Residency Program was founded in 1969
and is fully accredited.
Message from the Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Training Director
I am excited that you are
interested in learning more about our Child and Adolescent Psychiatry
Residency. As you look through our website, you will become familiar with our
mission to provide excellent education in a supportive environment. Our
training program emphasizes training in both biological and psychosocial
modalities. Education, both clinical and didactic, is our top priority. All
clinical experiences are chosen with the expectation that they will provide
excellent exposure to the wide variety of psychiatric diagnoses and issues
facing children and adolescents. Both our full-time faculty, part-time faculty,
and volunteer faculty are highly dedicated to the education of residents and
students.
Our program was recently
evaluated by the ACGME Residency Review Committee, and we were given a full five
years’ accreditation. We have also expanded our program from two Fellows per
year to three Fellows per year, and are adding new the faculty as well.
I invite you to apply to our
program as well as to contact myself or any of the Fellows if you have any
questions or require further information. Thank you for evaluating and
considering our program!
