University of Connecticut Program

The University of Connecticut Residency in Diagnostic Radiology is a four-year training program based in Farmington, CT. The program emphasizes a small academic practice within a community setting with a wide breadth of pathology. Residents work closely with subspecialty-trained faculty in a collegial, low-pressure atmosphere conducive to resident-driven academic pursuits.

The program is affiliated with a top state university and provides access to a variety of work experiences, including exposure to a diverse patient population through partnerships with state facilities like the Department of Corrections. Residents also rotate to Saint Francis Hospital and Medical Center for unique urban healthcare experiences and receive pediatric training at Connecticut Children's Medical Center.

Educational support includes funding for attendance at the American Institute for Radiologic Pathology (AIRP) and national conferences. The program emphasizes well-being, providing holidays, hosting resident and faculty gatherings, and offering resources to promote work-life balance.

Application to the program requires a complete submission through ERAS, with potential consideration for graduates of foreign medical schools who have passed USMLE Steps 1 and 2. The program typically receives over 500 applications annually, interviewing approximately 15% of completed applications.
