Three years will include training in general dermatology core areas (medical dermatology, dermatopathology, dermatologic surgery and pediatric dermatology) to meet Dermatology Residency ACGME requirements and eligibility for Dermatology Board Certification.

The pediatric dermatology focus will include the following training opportunities:

Mentored Quality Improvement Project in Pediatric Dermatology
Clinical Scholars Track research project in pediatric dermatology
Dedicated mentorship from a pediatric dermatologist
Participation in bi-monthly pediatric dermatology educational conferences
Opportunity to attend the Society for Pediatric Dermatology and/or Pediatric Dermatology Research Alliance meetings

A fellowship in pediatric dermatology is independent from this training track.
