A total of 110 seniors at the University of Nebraska Medical Center
College of Medicine have received their residency assignments through the
National Senior Match Day program. Senior Match Day is an annual event
held at the exact same time at UNMC and other U.S. medical schools. Residencies
generally last from three to five years and allow the newly-graduated physicians
to specialize in an area of medicine, such as internal medicine, family
medicine, surgery or obstetrics and gynecology.
The residency matching system, which was started in 1952, placed 15,078
U.S. medical students this year into residencies in medical specialties.
Under the program, students list several places they would like to train,
and then are matched through a computerized national system.
About 95 percent of the UNMC class received one of their top three residency
assignments of choice. Sixty-three percent of the class, 69 seniors,
were placed in primary care residencies this year, including 35 of the
39 seniors who will do residencies at UNMC or at a Lincoln-based family
practice program affiliated with UNMC.
Primary care includes family medicine, internal medicine, pediatrics
and obstetrics/gynecology.
Seniors who will graduate May 8, are listed by residency assignment,
