The program director will lead recruitment and selection activities with a goal of matching six residents each year via the National Resident Matching Program (NRMP). The program director will be responsible for overseeing all clinical rotations. The program director will be responsible for ensuring that evaluations of clinical trainees are completed and for providing twice annual progress reports to each trainee, either directly or via delegation to other faculty members.
