Education

UNC department of emergency medicine

Emergency Medicine is one of the most challenging medical specialties. Doctors must be dynamic, diverse and able to adapt to this rapidly evolving field. Emergency Medicine is a discipline that serves a whole community of patients both inside and outside the hospital. Emergency Medicine education at UNC occurs at many levels including community outreach, international outreach, EMS, medical students, residents, and fellowships emphasizing on acute care of patients with episodic illnesses.

This is the 15th year of hosting an outstanding residency in emergency medicine.
