A combined psychiatric-psychoanalytic training program has been instituted at New York Medical College. Through this program, a resident in training may commence psychoanalytic training in the evening institute of the Department of Psychiatry at the end of his first year of residency. He may then receive two years of psychoanalytic training concurrent with his last two years of residency, which afford him the following benefits: didactic analysis at a reduced fee of $15 per session, free psychoanalytic institute tuition and free control analysis. If he is appointed to the fulltime psychiatric staff after completion of his residency, he may continue to receive these benefits. This program has been well received by the residents in training at New York Medical College. Its many practical and theoretical advantages are discussed as well as its ultimate implications.
