Education is our top priority at the University of Tennessee. As such, we offer multiple educational experiences, including:

• An 18 month rotating, structured curriculum, covering all of the major topics in Internal Medicine (noon lecture series on Mondays, Tuesdays, Thursdays, and Fridays). Click Conferences to see this week's lecture series.
• A Written curriculum for each rotation, including ambulatory care. Click Curriculum to review our various rotations.
• Professor's Rounds- weekly case-based discussion with the Chairman of Medicine.
• MedStudy Reading Club- a weekly question-based review of internal medicine using the MedStudy and MKSAP formats. Internal Medicine residents are given the MedStudy books are part of their educational stipend and review the entire MedStudy curriculum each year through attendance at this conference. Thus, residents are given the opportunity to completely review MedStudy three times prior to taking the boards just by attending these sessions. This is a wonderful preparation for Internal Medicine Boards. Click MedStudy for the current yearly schedule.
