All programs within the Pediatric Residency at UNM are required to offer six individualized educational units to be chosen based on resident's career goals.
An educational unit may be a traditional four week block or a longitudinal experience. The UNM Pediatrics Residency program will offer four tracks from which residents may choose:
A mentor will be available to guide residents in each individual track. Interns will select a track in the winter of their PL-1 year to allow time for scheduling. The six individualized educational units will span the PL-2 and PL-3 years.
Each track will have some required elements and some elective elements. Required elements are indicated by * on chart. The table below demonstrates a tentative schedule of required and elective options for each track.
