Institutional Organization:
The College of Medicine at UAMS is the sponsoring institution for
residency/fellowship programs and assures ultimate responsibility
for programs of graduate medical education. All
accredited residency/fellowship programs must be approved for sponsorship by
the Dean, College of Medicine, and are ultimately under his
authority and control. The Dean has designated the Associate Dean
for Graduate Medical Education as the institutional official for
oversight and administration of the GME programs. The Graduate
Medical Education Committee, a standing committee of the College
of Medicine, monitors and advises on all issues of residency
education.
The College of Medicine is committed to substantially complying
with the requirements of the Accreditation Council for Graduate
Medical Education (ACGME) and ensuring that the ACGME-accredited
programs are in substantial compliance with their individual
program requirements. This is ensured through periodic internal
reviews of the programs and of the College of Medicine by the GME Committee and through oversight by the Associate Dean for
GME.
