It has a major affiliation with the University of Connecticut Health Center in undergraduate and graduate medical education. It conducts 28 clinical educational programs for third and fourth year medical students and 29 programs in graduate medical education at the residency and fellowship levels. Full and part-time medical staff support the hospital's educational programs where commitment to research and education is inseparable from the hospital's role in patient care. The goal of this two-year program is to produce clinically excellent physicians who are equipped to diagnose and treat the entire spectrum of vascular disease. Clinical research is a mandated component of this program.
Practical experience is balanced by a wide variety of conferences and didactic activities.
House staff completing the program should be prepared to pursue either an academic or a private practice career in Pathology. The Summer Student Fellowship Program is designed exclusively for premedical students completing either their junior or senior year in college. It offers the student an introduction to research methodology, patient treatment, and ethical issues in medicine as well as exposure to a broad spectrum of health care providers within a large community teaching hospital. The Capital Area Health Consortium is seeking applications for the T. Stewart Hamilton, M.D. Fellowship in Healthcare Management. The fellowship was conceived to create opportunities for individuals to engage in post-graduate study in the field of healthcare.
