Schedule

A key goal of the UNC Pediatrics Residency Program is to provide residents with exceptional educational experiences while fostering progressive autonomy and ownership of their learning. Our curriculum is intentionally designed to offer a balanced and comprehensive training experience, with educational opportunities tailored to each stage of residency. Program leadership continuously reviews resident schedules and rotations to ensure compliance with all ACGME requirements while maintaining fairness and equity across the training program.

The residency schedule is organized into thirteen 4-week blocks that alternate between inpatient and outpatient experiences, allowing residents to develop skills across a variety of clinical settings. During the winter holiday season, the schedule is adjusted to provide additional time off, supporting resident well-being and work-life balance.
