Program Requirements * : Step 1 cut-off 75 Program Type: The University of Utah has long been a center of excellence in the field of graduate medical education.
Annually, approximately 525 residents and fellows acquire and develop knowledge through a variety of medical and surgical programs. The University of Utah's unique geographical location and its service to a six-state area allow for diverse case mixes and high patient volume, giving residents and fellows the kind of extensive hands-on training they need to become superb clinicians.
Residency Training Housestaff training is supervised by the medical school's Graduate Medical Education Committee and the more than 800 full-time faculty members of the School of Medicine. The ratio of full-time faculty to housestaff is more than 1:1, and a clinical staff of community physicians augments the regular faculty. Houseofficers participate in daily rounds, discussing patient problems and arranging necessary care. Teaching rounds are led regularly by full-time faculty, and weekly chart-review sessions with housestaff are held by senior faculty. Residents in most programs are on call an average of one out of four nights. In addition to their patient-care activities, residents also serve as active teachers. They guide the work of medical student "clerks" and first-year students and often help prepare unit visiting rounds, staff rounds, clinical-pathological conferences and other clinical and professional meetings.
