Program Structure
The APP fellowship tracks all consist of a clinical practice curriculum (70%), a clinical didactic curriculum (15%), and a non-clinical professional development curriculum (15%). We place great value on each fellow's individual interests, unique skills, and personal goals.
Although the fellowship curriculum has a standardized structure across all tracks, leadership faculty work individually with each fellow to develop track-specific rotations, professional development projects, and personalized goals. Each fellow receives mentorship and individualized attention to support both personal and professional growth throughout the program.
Fellowship Curriculum Overview
Clinical Practice Curriculum (70%)
Each program track offers a uniquely tailored clinical experience for the APP fellow to ensure broad and wide-ranging exposure to clinical content, specialty and subspecialty areas, with intentional repetition of select areas of clinical practice. Fellows can pursue elective rotations to expand training or exposure to specific environments, specialty populations, or clinical skills. These electives are customized through collaboration with program leadership to align with each fellow’s goals and interests.
Clinical Didactic Curriculum (15%)
The clinical didactic curriculum provides specialty-specific experiences including lectures, simulations, case studies, and workshops designed to meet each track’s learning needs. Didactic sessions vary weekly and are documented within the fellow’s master schedule to ensure comprehensive exposure to advanced clinical education.
Non-Clinical Professional Development Curriculum (15%)
Fellows engage in leadership, research, publication, and quality improvement initiatives that expand their impact beyond patient care. This curriculum balances clinical duties with professional development opportunities, preparing APPs as future leaders and innovators in healthcare.
