FELLOWSHIP PROGRAM GOALS

The cardiology fellowship program at MSU has a long-standing reputation of preparing talented internists for successful careers in academic and private practice cardiology. Previous fellows have attained faculty positions or opportunities for further training at other prestigious institutions. They have also opened or joined successful cardiology practices through out the United States.

The primary goal of the Cardiology Fellowship Program is to prepare physicians to become accomplished sub-specialists in Cardiovascular Disease. Our education program has been developed in order to allow individual fellows to become skilled as clinicians, teachers and investigators. The fellowship program begins with an intensive experience in Clinical Cardiology as a broad base for further specialized activities. The training program emphasizes the development of particular skills to foster a life-long enthusiasm for clinical or basic science research that will lead to improved understanding of disease processes and, ultimately, toward advancements in the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of patients with cardiovascular disease.

Our program has earned full accreditation through A.C.G.M.E. and we strive to give our fellows the best education possible.
