128 UNMC medical students receive residency assignments

Daniel Arkfeld, class president, on Match Day

During Match Day today, 128 students of the University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Medicine, learned where they will do their physician residency training – typically a period of three to six years of training depending on their chosen medical specialty.
 
Forty percent of UNMC students are staying in Nebraska for their training, and 64 percent matched in primary care, which includes family medicine, internal medicine, internal medicine/pediatrics, pediatrics and obstetrics/gynecology.
 
Students are matched through a computer program to align their preferences for residency programs in order to fill the thousands of training positions available at U.S. teaching hospitals.
 
The National Resident Matching Program® (NRMP®), or The Match®, is a private, non-profit organization that provides an orderly and fair mechanism for matching the preferences of applicants for U.S. residency positions with the preferences of residency program directors.
 
The UNMC medical students, slated to graduate May 4, are listed by hometown, name, specialty and residency assignment.
