UAZPsychiatry

The Department of Psychiatry is one of the original departments in the University of Arizona College of Medicine – Tucson, which was founded in 1967. We are known for our focus on community-based mental health and a multidisciplinary approach to the medical/psychiatry interface. Our Department is leading the effort to comprehensively approach psychiatric disorders, prepare future clinicians, prevent psychiatric disorders, provide state-of-the-art care, and give direction to community efforts to improve behavioral health. We are enhancing behavioral health through scientific research, education, training, community leadership, and service.
