University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Medicine Program

The University of Nebraska Medical Center College of Medicine Program offers a comprehensive Neurology Residency Program that emphasizes a balance of clinical training, a broad educational curriculum, and career development. This ACGME-certified four-year categorical program provides residents with rotations at three affiliated training facilities, including Nebraska Medicine, the Omaha Division of the Veterans Administration Medical Center, and Children's Nebraska. These hospitals collectively form the largest referral center in Nebraska and neighboring states, exposing residents to a diverse range of patients and disease states.

The program's goals are aligned with UNMC's ITEACH values, focusing on producing compassionate, clinically proficient neurologists prepared for independent practice. They aim to recruit residents from various training backgrounds who share a passion for neurology, encourage residents as medical educators, foster a culture of innovation and multidisciplinary teamwork, and provide a safe and nurturing clinical learning environment promoting wellness, respect, and compassion for all stakeholders.

The Department of Neurological Sciences at the University of Nebraska Medical Center comprises clinicians, scientists, and educators dedicated to advancing neural health across the lifespan. Residents have the opportunity to work alongside leaders in patient care, research, education, administration, and outreach to deliver innovative care to patients with complex neurologic disorders.

The program prioritizes resident wellness and resiliency through formal training and department-sponsored social activities, aiming to enhance neurologic care in Nebraska and graduate exceptional neurologists poised to lead in research, quality improvement, outreach, and medical education.
