Overview

A robust one-year training program, the SingHealth Transitional Year Residency Program is designed to provide you with broad-based clinical training and prepare you for specialization.

This program would be suitable for you, if you:
Have chosen a medical specialty for which the Residency Program requires a prerequisite year of fundamental clinical education
Wish to seek one year of fundamental clinical education 
  Wish to rotate to various specialties to assist you in making a career choice or specialty selection  

During your transitional year training, you would have the opportunity to rotate to various clinical specialties, be exposed to a wide range of clinical cases and interact with different specialists from varying fields. This enhances your experience as a clinician and empowers you for specialized medical practice in the near future.
