Program Outcomes

MD program graduates typically continue their training in Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) accredited residencies and fellowships in all disciplines of medicine throughout the United States. Following residency, graduates enter careers in academic medicine, private practice, research and industry. 

Temple graduates secure impressive residencies, attributable to our school’s reputation for providing superior clinical training. Of recent graduating classes, most seniors chose university hospitals or major affiliates of a university hospital for residencies. 

About 40% of Temple graduates pursue residencies in internal medicine, family medicine or pediatrics, which can lead to primary care careers. The remainder of students pursue specialties and subspecialties. Graduate residencies span from coast-to-coast and border-to-border.
