UC Davis Emergency Medicine USAF Integrated Residency Program

In 2022, the UC Davis Emergency Medicine residency program, in collaboration with the United States Air Force (USAF), began offering five active duty training position in each new residency class. Interested applicants from the Uniformed Services University of the Health Sciences (USUHS), Health Professions Scholarship Program (HPSP) affiliated organizations, and current active duty physicians should apply through the Joint Services GME Selection Board.

Integrated Air Force residents will complete the same ACGME-accredited (Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education) 3-year Emergency Medicine curriculum as their civilian counterparts. Integrated residents will be on active duty orders throughout their training and will be entitled to pay and benefits commensurate to their rank and grade. Graduates of the program will be eligible for board certification by the American Board of Emergency Medicine. Upon completion of integrated residency training, Air Force graduates will enter the Air Force Medical Corps as Emergency Medicine physicians (AFSC 44E3). The significance of this partnership cannot be overstated for the health of Air Force medical training and the future of military medicine in general.
