Join us to learn about the Columbia University Irving Medical Center Psychiatry Pre-Med Program.
The college clinical program is a four-month experience for undergraduate students, specifically sophomores, juniors, and seniors who attend a university in the City University of New York (CUNY). Students will rotate through two different psychiatric clinical services, a community outpatient psychiatric clinic and the Comprehensive Psychiatric Emergency.
With an emphasis on community psychiatry, students will be exposed to multiple aspects of psychiatric care through rotations in a community outpatient clinic, as well as the Comprehensive Psychiatric Emergency Program (CPEP). Along with engagement in clinical experiences, students will visit community mental health sites and attend didactics. Students will be shadowing and learning from a multidisciplinary team of medical students, residents, attendings, as well as social workers, therapists, and case managers. Students will learn about mental health disorders, treatment options, and considerations, as well as clinical skills such as conducting patient interviews and performing assessments.
