The Pediatric Critical Care Medicine fellowship is a three year program. Clinical responsibilities in the first year will include seven to eight months on clinical rotation (PICU/Anesthesia/CICU). Later in the year, fellows will assume administrative fellow responsibilities, including team management and leadership exposure, triage, and consultative experiences. In addition, in the first year, two to three months are devoted to the exploration of the fellow’s research interests .

During the second year, fellows will spend four-five months on clinical service in the PIC/CICU, with the remainder of the time spent on research. The third year focuses upon completion of the research pursuits with the goal of organizing and presenting the results of the scientific inquiry for peer review. In addition, clinical service time will focus on the preparation of the senior fellow to become an independent practitioner and leader of a multidisciplinary care team.
