Fellowship Curriculum
The PEM curriculum consists of a wide variety of rotations to provide a well-rounded training experience that will ensure physicians graduating from our program will excel within Pediatric Emergency Medicine in any setting.
The year is divided into 12 blocks, each consisting of 4-weeks. Graduates of pediatric residencies will require a three-year-curriculum, and graduates of emergency medicine residencies will require a 2-year curriculum.
Fellows have the option of combining their research and PEM months (shown below) to allow them to spread out their research time as needed for their projects.
