Conferences & Lectures
VCU Urology Residency Program
Each week, the Division of Urology holds lectures and conferences to supplement Resident and Faculty education.
In an effort to ensure that residents build the necessary knowledge base to perform well on the annual in-service exam and on the urology boards, we have developed a “Strive for Five” curriculum largely based on the AUA Core Curriculum in addition to updated AUA Guidelines and AUA Updates. Please see our Strive for Five didactics teaching sessions curriculum for more information.
Below is a list of the various lectures and topics covered and the frequency of each conference.

6:30 am – rotating class meeting (PGY1-5) with the Program Director
7:00 am – Indications Conference to highlight notable imaging and complex cases
