What type of resident applicants is the EMIM program looking for?
The EMIM program at the University of Maryland is well established and considered one of the premier residencies within the Medical Center. The primary goal of the EMIM program is to train future academic and community leaders in the fields of emergency medicine and internal medicine. Residency applicants typically have a strong academic record and are within the upper third of their medical school class. Applicants must be committed to the practice of both specialties and be informed about career opportunities for dual board certified physicians. As evidenced by our sample block schedule, our program provides comprehensive, and intense, exposure to all facets of both emergency medicine and internal medicine. Thus, residents must be committed to, and prepared for, a five year program.
