Why did you choose Michigan's residency program?

I chose Michigan because, as a critical care resident, the program offers a wide range of ICU rotations as well as the opportunity to round out my skills in the emergency staffing as part of the clinical staffing weekends. Michigan’s residency program also sets its residents up to be strong candidates for future positions with multiple presentation and publication opportunities. Lastly, I wanted a bigger residency class to help get me through the year, and Michigan definitely offered that as well!
