The goals of the
UCLA Residency Program are to personalize the education of each resident, to facilitate
the development of the essential values of pediatrics, to promote lifelong learning, and
to prepare each resident for the clinical, social, and economic challenges that will
characterize pediatrics and all of medicine during your career.

Those of us who choose a career in Pediatrics share a commitment to promote the health of children. The means we choose to achieve this goal are extraordinarily diverse, from general pediatric rural practice to critical care in an academic medical center, from adolescent medicine in an inner-city neighborhood to cutting-edge research in a lab.
The educational challenge
that we face is to meet the diverse demands of a rapidly changing
health-care environment, and to help residents fulfill their commitment to
children’s health in whatever career they eventually choose. The UCLA
Tri-Campus Pediatric Residency Program is uniquely positioned to meet this
challenge. The three campuses – Mattel Children’s Hospital at UCLA,
Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, and Los Angeles County-Olive View Medical
Center – offer a range and strength of experiences that is unsurpassed in
the country.
We?re excited to offer the following Pediatric Residency Tracks: the Categorical Pediatrics track, the Pediatrics-Genetics track, the Pediatric Research track, and the Primary Care Community Health and Advocacy track. In addition, a combined program in pediatrics and internal medicine is also available.
No matter what track you choose, our clinical sites, the patients whom we serve, our educational philosophy, our commitment to the advancement of science, our faculty, and especially our housestaff all combine to create a learning environment that is dynamic, challenging, responsive, and rewarding!
