Child and Adolescent Fellowship

The child and adolescent fellowship program at Michigan State University is unlike any other in the country. The program is a unique blend of academic and community-based institutions. We are a university-based program training residents in health care institutions in Lansing and nearby communities.

Our inpatient child and adolescent psychiatry rotation cooperates with the Department of Psychiatry at the University of Michigan. We utilize multiple community facilities, including Clinton-Eaton-Ingham Community Mental Health Center, Local Area School Districts, and others, to help our residents learn how to treat complex psychopathology in children and adolescents.​

Our residents learn in close association with child and adolescent psychiatry faculty members and several community-based faculty members. Our graduates are heavily represented in mid-size and smaller communities throughout Michigan.​

MSU is the only university in the country with on-campus medical schools graduating allopathic and osteopathic physicians and veterinarians. As the university extends the College of Human Medicine and the College of Osteopathic Medicine to new areas of the state, MSU will be among the largest universities in the United States regarding the number of medical school graduates.​

The Department of Psychiatry is a jointly administered department of the College of Human Medicine and the College of Osteopathic Medicine, and our Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Residency Program is accredited by the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME).
