Residency Programs

Recognizing that residents have diverse personal and educational needs, the University of Utah Pediatric Residency Program has made flexibility in education a priority. We offer four formal training programs: The Categorical Pediatrics Program, which aims at training a well-rounded pediatrician capable of doing primary care pediatrics or entering a fellowship. A Medicine/Pediatrics Program allowing board eligibility in medicine and pediatrics; a Triple Board Program leading to board eligibility in pediatrics, psychiatry and child psychiatry; and an integrated Child Neurology Program that enables board eligibility in pediatrics and neurology (with specialization in child neurology). We also offer a preliminary year for outstanding applicants who anticipate careers in pediatric subspecialties that do not require two or three years of a pediatric residency.
