Each year, over 2,600 residents and fellows rotate through the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai’s 250 robust graduate medical education programs, and develop their skills as heath care practitioners in the nation’s largest residency and fellowship program. They practice in inner city and suburban settings; in a dozen municipal, tertiary, and quaternary care hospitals—including ten that compose the Mount Sinai Health System—the James J. Peters VA Medical Center in the Bronx; numerous ambulatory locations; and the Rikers Island Prison Complex. They serve a patient population that is among the nation’s most culturally and economically diverse.
Alongside Mount Sinai’s dynamic clinical setting is an academic medical center that is focused on innovative biomedical research. In fiscal 2024, the Icahn School of Medicine at Mount Sinai received $502 million in funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH), ranking No. 13 among U.S. medical schools.

With dynamic program opportunities, individualized support, unique clinical experiences, mentorship, and ongoing quality improvement initiatives, our Graduate Medical Education Programs attract the best and brightest. Our residents and fellows thrive on access to a remarkably diverse patient population, high-tech educational environments, and Mount Sinai Health System’s commitment to translate our research discoveries into real patient results.
