1. Core training: provides initial exposure to cardiac critical care, consultative cardiology, ambulatory cardiology, a full range of noninvasive diagnostic testing and introductory experience in cardiac catheterization and electrophysiology.
2. Electives: during the third year, electives are available in advanced noninvasive imaging, invasive cardiology, or cardiovascular research. Elective opportunities also exist in the areas of pediatric cardiology, transplantation medicine, prevention and rehabilitation, advanced cardiac imaging, and electrophysiology.

By the end of three years, fellows have gained extensive experience in consultative cardiology, cardiac catheterization, transesophageal and transthoracic echocardiography, stress testing, ECG interpretation and noninvasive electrocardiographic monitoring. In addition, fellows participate in electrophysiological studies, pacemaker and defibrillator implantation and evaluation, and percutaneous coronary interventions. Some graduates of the USF cardiology fellowship program meet all the requirements for certification in nuclear cardiology. Exposure to cardiac CT and MR is also available.
