General Description
This is a one-year ASHP accredited PGY2 residency that is designed to develop practitioner expertise in pediatric pharmacotherapy and clinical skills by providing a diverse number of experiences in pediatrics. The C.S. Mott Children’s and Von Voigtlander Women’s Hospital is a 348-bed tertiary care academic medical center that will provide the resident with educational experience encompassing a variety of activities with emphasis on pediatric therapy management. Experience can be gained in general pediatrics (including pulmonology, hematology/oncology, neurology, nephrology and gastroenterology), pediatric infectious diseases, pediatric and neonatal intensive care, pediatric cardiology, pediatric surgery, pediatric bone marrow transplant, academia, emergency medicine, and more! The resident will gain experience in the ambulatory care setting in the pediatric pulmonary clinic, primarily focused on asthma and cystic fibrosis. We also offer the opportunity to teach in the pediatric elective course at the college of pharmacy.
Additional experiences include precepting APPE and PGY1 residents (as available) and an adjunct faculty appointment at the University of Michigan College of Pharmacy. The resident will also have two publication opportunities via research and writing projects, participation in code response, and other opportunities tailored to meet the individual resident's interests.
Program Purpose
The purpose of the PGY2 Pediatric Residency at the University of Michigan is to prepare the resident to be a highly qualified candidate for Clinical Pharmacist, Clinical Track Faculty or Adjunct Faculty positions.
Recruitment Plan
The Department of Pharmacy Services at the University of Michigan Health will be recruiting for one pediatric pharmacy PGY2 resident for the 2025-2026 residency year.
Recruitment will occur in-person at ASHP Midyear in New Orleans Louisiana through the PPS platform. We will also be represented at the ASHP Midyear Showcase on Tuesday, December 10th from 1-4pm (Booth 6004). Please stop by to connect with our resident and RPD!
