Residency Career Opportunities

Go To: Admissions Home Page

One of the distinct advantages of an osteopathic medical education is that it prepares students to enter all three of the nation's residency programs: allopathic, military and osteopathic. Our graduates have been placed in residency and internship positions throughout the United States.

The University of North Texas Health Science Center offers residency programs through the Texas Osteopathic Postdoctoral Training Institutions (OPTI) in the following areas: Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, Obstetrics & Gynecology, Orthopedics, Radiology, Surgery and Manipulative Medicine. The Health Science Center also offers fellowship programs in Osteopathic Manipulative Therapy, Geriatric Medicine, Sports Medicine and Vascular Surgery.

In keeping with the osteopathic traditions, many of our graduates enter primary care (Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, Obstetrics & Gynecology and Pediatrics) internships and residencies. A number of them have also entered specialties such as Emergency Medicine, Neurology, Anesthesiology, Orthopedic Surgery, Psychiatry and Radiology.
