by At the University of Chicago, we prioritize advanced medical education in addition to evidence-based patient care. Residents, fellows, and faculty in the Department of Pediatrics share a commitment to teaching through learning experiences, bedside teaching, and didactic sessions. In addition to your core pediatric education, you can choose to apply to one of four scholarship tracks that can supplement your education.
