The BCRP specializes in training academic pediatricians. Ninety-two percent of the program’s graduates during the past twenty years have continued on a pathway leading to an academic career. This is an exceptionally high percentage. The residents enter a wide variety of fields. Although some go to programs across the country, about 75% continue their training at Boston Children’s Hospital or Boston Medical Center.
