Career Pathways Program

The Career Pathways Program is a longitudinal component of the Total Health Curriculum designed to assist you in your professional identity formation, using the “Careers in Medicine” (CiM) model to support all phases of the career decision-making process.

The match

An abundance of resources help you match in residency programs that are best aligned with your career and personal interests. The Division of Student Affairs’ Center for Career Development uses a combination of career coaching, specialty advising and mentoring and the longitudinal Career Pathways Program to help you identify your specialty interests and future residency.

You’ll begin the process of career exploration in Phase 1 with specialty events, mentoring resources and individual meetings. During Phase 2 and Phase 3, you’ll learn about

the process of applying to residency through a series of workshops, panel discussions and didactic sessions. Collaborative meetings will be held among the residency planning team and the regional teams to best support you throughout this process. National and institutional match data helps you successfully gain interviews and ultimately match to a residency program that best fits with their values, skills and attributes. You’ll receive strategic coaching regarding the application submission and alumni provide peer mentoring, as needed.
