The Department of Urology Residency Training Program participates in the National Residency Match Program (NRMP) and only accepts applications for our training program through Electronic Residency Application Service (ERAS®).
There are three training sites in our program: The UAMS Medical Center, the John L. McClellan Memorial Veterans Hospital, and Arkansas Children’s Hospital. Members of the teaching faculty are actively involved at each teaching site and provide omnipresent direct supervision to residents.
