The University of Michigan Psychiatry Student Interest Group is run by medical students and is affiliated with the Department of Psychiatry.
We act to educate the medical student community on topics related to psychiatry and mental health, promote interest and provide resources on psychiatry as a profession, and help foster relationships between students and psychiatry residents/faculty.
Each year we coordinate a dinner with psychiatry faculty; coordinate mentorship pairings between medical students and residents; organize a lecture series on psychiatry-related topics; and support M3/M4s applying into psychiatry with the residency application process via workshops and panels. We are also affiliated with the national Psychiatry Student Interest Group Network (PsychSIGN). If you have any questions about the interest group, you can reach out to the current executive board at [email protected].
