University Program

In addition to providing training for today’s leading medical and
healthcare fields, University of Nebraska Medical Center (UNMC) is at the
forefront of major research activities.

Located in Omaha, Nebraska, UNMC is particularly well known and respected
for its programs in Nursing, Pharmacy, Physical Therapy and Physician
Assisting. UNMC also has a medical and dental school that trains future
doctors and dentists.

In addition to offering high-quality medical education, UNMC conducts
hundreds of research projects yearly at its Durham Research Centers.
Research activities include discoveries and contributions in such areas
as cancer treatments and transplant medicine.

Since the student population remains relatively small, both classes and
research activities take place in small groups, giving students the
chance to work with faculty members, who are leaders and pioneers in
their field.

Additional healthcare education programs include training for such fields
as Clinical Laboratory Science, Cytotechnology, Medical Sonography and
Radiation Therapy.

Each program has its own admission requirements. Students may also apply
for funding through research assistantships and fellowships.
