Curriculum

The PCSIM curriculum is a multifaceted, three-year experience that aims to provide our residents with the knowledge and skills that they will need to practice excellent care to everyone.

The environments of learning include classroom, traditional clinical spaces, unique clinical experiences and experiences in the Bronx community.

In all learning, we seek not only to sharpen the traditional domains of Internal Medicine graduate education (such as medical knowledge and systems based practice) but also to explore other factors that influence health and well-being.
