Program highlights
- Four-year format: PGY-4 includes 9 EM blocks, 2 electives, an administration block and a trauma block at Hurley; ask how seniors use the extra year (leadership, electives, fellowship prep).
- Small class of 6 means close faculty contact; the PD says the program has a cohesive resident group and a dedicated faculty.
- Dual osteopathic/allopathic heritage: the program welcomes both COMLEX and USMLE applicants and the PD advises applying early because of the two match timelines.
- Multi-hospital exposure: Hurley (PEM, trauma), Beaumont (PICU), Detroit Medical Center (toxicology) complement a Level II community-academic ED; mention interest in underserved or high-acuity trauma settings.
- Didactics: Rosen's with weekly quizzes, Rosh Review, EM Sono ultrasound curriculum, mock orals, and MSU-SCS Grand Rounds with ballistics, airway, cadaver and slit-lamp labs.
- Check eligibility early: FAQ lists a USMLE Step 1 minimum of 225 (COMLEX I 500), first-attempt passes, and no visa sponsorship (page may be dated; confirm with the program).
