Overview
Our entire faculty strives to provide the best environment for the development of highly skilled psychiatrists who will be well-prepared for their professional career. The National University Hospital offers rotations through general psychiatry, child psychiatry, and consultation-liaison psychiatry. Residents will see a wide range of cases in the inpatient, outpatient and emergency settings. Residents will receive psychotherapy supervision weekly as well as rotation-specific supervision from our faculty. Research experiences are available during rotations. We believe that the cornerstone to learning psychiatry is understanding the patient. This means spending time with patients to learn about their symptoms and helping the patients to help themselves. This requires a fundamental knowledge of phenomenology, psychopharmacology and psychodynamics. Our goal is to provide a solid foundation for the development of clinicians and academicians who wish to provide patient care, conduct research or teach.
