Greetings Alumni! Welcome to the website for the SIU Department of
Psychiatry. As part of our educational mission, we are hoping to develop
better communication with alumni of both the categorical psychiatry program
and the combined medicine/psychiatry program. We are interested in learning
where and how graduates from our program are practicing and in gathering
other information that will help us understand how the training and educational
curriculum in our program has affected the practice patterns, choices, and
certification. In turn, we would like to keep you informed of the many
changes taking place within the program and within the department.

The Department of Psychiatry offers (for our graduates who are planning on
taking the Part II Examination of the American Board of Psychiatry and
Neurology) the opportunity to undergo a practice oral board examination
conducted with live patients and our board examiner faculty. Also from time to
time, we will be conducting surveys of our graduates in order to better learn
about the success of the program and any needed changes. You are an
important resource.

Please email us with your mailing address, year of program completion, and a
word or two about your current practice. We would like to be able to contact
you in the future.

If you graduated from the SIU Psychiatry Training
Program particularly within the last 5 years and are
anticipating taking the Part II portion (live patient
interview and oral examination) of the ABPN
Certification Examination, we will offer you free Mock
Oral Board Examinations with feedback. Please
