Psychiatry Residency - Overview

Overview

Key features:

 

  • Specialized residency and fellowship tracks, including psychiatric research - designed for residents entering with a Ph.D. degree.
  • A vast group of research centers and programs investigating the whole spectrum of the neurosciences, from the gene through to human culture.
  • Close affiliations to other centers in the Greater LA area that support our training effort in community psychiatry and offer residents additional opportunity to select various ambulatory and ER rotations.
  • Inpatient programs to be based in the new 75-bed Resnick Neuropsychiatric Hospital, as part of the Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, featuring the most advanced medical technology in the world, which opened in Summer 2008
