A total of 118 senior medical students at the University of Nebraska Medical Center in Omaha received their residency assignments today.
Match Day is an annual rite of passage for medical students – a day when students across the country learn where they will train the next three to seven years in the medical area of their choice. 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.
Forty-three percent of UNMC students are staying in Nebraska for their training, and 58 percent matched in primary care, which includes family medicine, internal medicine, internal medicine/pediatrics, pediatrics and obstetrics/gynecology.
Among the students receiving their assignments were Fremonters Justin Grassmeyer, Ellen Janssen and Rachel Samuelson.
