Introduction: As of July 2020, all second-year pediatric residents participate in a one-month academic rotation. The rotation focuses on quality improvement (QI), research, education and leadership skills and experience. This project aims to assess the impact of the rotation on residents’ self-reported QI proficiency, self-rated motivation to pursue scholarly activities, and competency based on ACGME milestones.

Methods: Pediatric residents participating in the academic rotation …

This report provides a comprehensive treatment of the time-to-graduation (TTG) problem. The goal of this problem is to make predictions about the time it takes for a student to graduate from a particular institution. We develop a complete mathematical description of the TTG problem which includes data synthesis models that reveal details of the problem that are often hidden or overlooked in the literature. This report explores two vastly different approaches to this problem, including detailed algorithmic descriptions and practical examples where specific solution methods are applied to both synthetic data and real UNM student data. The first approach is …
