University of Chicago Medicine Pharmacy Residency

University of Chicago Medicine Pharmacy Residency Our training program is designed to develop knowledge and encourage clinical leadership.

The University of Chicago Medicine Pharmacy Residency Programs develop residents into autonomous clinicians with the skills needed to lead patient-specific programs in a variety of practice settings. The University of Chicago Medicine is a progressive organization, offering pharmacy residents the opportunity to work in an academic environment that fosters innovation and advancement in health care. Residents will improve their skills and build confidence, making an undeniable difference in the residents’ ability to provide excellent patient care throughout their professional career. Rotations are available in a wide variety of practice areas under the support and guidance of preceptors who excel in their respective fields. Residents also participate in a teaching certification program and gain experience in the fundamentals of research through completion of a project. The goals of our training program are to provide opportunities for learning through projects and presentations, foster the ability to share knowledge through preceptorship, and achieve an understanding of hospital pharmacy practice through staffing responsibilities and administrative experiences. We currently offer a PGY1 program as well as PGY2 programs in cardiology, critical care, emergency medicine, internal medicine, oncology, pediatrics, pharmacogenomics, pharmacy informatics, solid organ transplant, and specialty pharmacy administration; in addition to a 2 year PGY1/PGY2/MS HSPAL program.
