Education

The Department of Medicine at the University of Illinois at Chicago offers residency, fellowship, and international programs.

The Department of Medicine at the University of Illinois at Chicago has a long tradition of providing thorough and comprehensive training in Medicine. Our goal is to prepare future internists and specialists for a wide range of career paths, including careers in academic medicine, primary care and subspecialty clinical practice. We do so with an eye toward the changing health care environment and the increasing demands upon physicians to be both evidence-based and humanistic in their approach to clinical decision-making. Our faculty of 210 is dedicated to training the best and the brightest.

RESIDENCY PROGRAM
The University of Illinois department of medicine sponsors over 50 ACGME Accredited Residency Programs with a fully staffed Graduate Medical Education office to assist in the administration of its programs. We train approximately 140 internal medicine residents yearly.

FELLOWSHIP PROGRAMS
The department of medicine offers ACGME-accredited clinical fellowship programs. Approximately 75 fellows conduct their fellowship training program at UIC Chicago. We invite you to learn more about our programs by division.

INTERNATIONAL PROGRAMS
Our division of infectious diseases offers training in the Dominican Republic and India to expose UIC trainees to the practice of medicine in a developing country and provide them with clinical experience in tropical medicine.

INSTRUCTIONS: In order to add a sidebar anchor:

  1. Duplicate the existing item, listed as a 1/6 text field. (Or create a 1/6 column and add a text field, modify the class so it’s exactly “additionalAnchor”).
  2. Modify the text field inside the 1/6 column. Inside there, modify the HYPERLINK so that it would go to a corresponding section with a “#” in front of it. (Example, we have a “chief” section on the page, then it would make sense to have the hyperlink go to “#chief”)
  3. Then change the hyperlink TEXT to a appropriate label.
  4. IMPORTANT: If not done already, go into that CONTAINER that corresponds to your anchor (i.e. Meet The Chiefs), and add an ID matching the anchor’s HYPERLINK WITHOUT the “#”, i.e. “chief”.
  5. (If using side bar widget box, then there’s a saved copy of a widget box COLUMN, grab it in the column library, it should 1/6 of a length of a column.)

NOTE: Order added to the sidebar is from last to first.
