The Forensic fellowship is designed to train
psychiatrists in law and psychiatry who will devote their careers
to practice, teaching, and research in forensic psychiatry.
Although the program presents a firm theoretical background,
its major strength lies in teaching the pragmatic skills of
performing evaluations, detecting malingering, writing forensic
reports, and giving effective court testimony.
Fellows take courses at CWRU Law School and
participate in a seminar on Landmark Mental Health Law Cases.
Clinical experience in a criminal court psychiatric clinic,
juvenile court psychiatric clinic, mentally disordered offenders
program, and inpatient forensic unit are individually tailored
to the interests of each fellow.
Detailed
Program Information
How to Apply
Applications for fellowship are made by residents
