Candidates will rotate through four unique activities to help give them a better feel for the department. The rotations featured are:
Formal Interviews: One-on-one 25 minute interviews with two members of the faculty
Informal conversation with PD/Chair: Chance to meet with the program Director and Department Chair in small groups with a more informal setting
Simulation demo / GME Questions: A split session that includes a visit to SimPORTAL and the opportunity to talk to the program coordinator about GME questions and various parts of the residency including research opportunities in the lab and the optional international rotation in India.
Resident Tour and Questions: Small, Resident-led, groups of four see part of what our Resident's daily experience entails and the chance to ask for the inside story of what it's like to study and work here.
