4 credit hours

The clinical clerkship in Psychiatry provides one required, four-week Core rotation. This clerkship is designed to provide the student with an understanding of Psychiatric illness and treatment through the integration of didactic knowledge and clinical experiences. Students will receive exposure to a diverse community of patients in both ambulatory and required inpatient settings. The curriculum content is delivered to students via the learning management system web site. During the clerkship, students will access the learning website to review learning modules on topics appropriate for a third year Psychiatry clerkship. These prescribed learning modules are based upon the 125 clinical presentations encountered during the first two years of medical education.
