Adult Psychiatry Residency Program
Tulane’s Adult Psychiatry Residency offers a dynamic, hands-on education in the heart of New Orleans. Our residents train in high-acuity, diverse clinical settings that foster confidence, adaptability, and clinical excellence. With close mentorship from supportive faculty, you’ll develop the autonomy to manage complex cases while mastering biological and psychological approaches to care. We emphasize up-to-date, evidence-based practice so you graduate with a strong, versatile foundation for any psychiatric career path.
Triple Board Residency
Triple Board Residents train in Pediatrics, General Psychiatry, and Child and Adolescent Psychiatry ("Triple Board Program") to become skilled physicians who integrate the clinical knowledge and skills of pediatrics and psychiatry to provide outstanding clinical care for children and their families. In five years, Triple Boarders become board-eligible in all three disciplines and can practice in any of the three. More importantly, Triple Boarders often use this combined training to develop unique career paths that cross the traditional disciplinary boundaries.
Internal Medicine & Psychiatry Residency
Tulane’s Combined Internal Medicine & Psychiatry Residency Program is a five-year training experience that prepares physicians for board eligibility in both specialties. Founded in 1993 as one of the first programs of its kind, it emphasizes whole-person care by integrating medical and psychiatric training in equal measure. Residents train across diverse clinical settings—including University Medical Center, the Southeast Louisiana Veterans Affairs hospital, DePaul Community Health Center, and an inpatient Med/Psych unit at Ochsner St. Charles Parish Hospital—while maintaining combined continuity clinics. Graduates are equipped for careers spanning hospitalist work, consult/liaison services, psychotherapy, primary care, academic medicine, and fellowship training. With strong support from both the Departments of Medicine and Psychiatry, Tulane’s Med/Psych program fosters leadership, scholarship, and advocacy in advancing integrated care locally and nationally.
