Indiana University School of Medicine Program

Program Identity & Fit

Indiana University's Emergency Medicine program is a large academic department in Indianapolis offering a three-year categorical residency, a five-year combined EM/Pediatrics track, and an extensive fellowship infrastructure spanning pediatric EM, medical toxicology, EMS, medical simulation, and clinical operations/administration. The breadth of post-residency fellowship pathways, including a structured MBA-integrated administration fellowship through the Kelley School of Business, signals a department built to produce subspecialized and system-leadership-oriented emergency physicians rather than solely community generalists. Clinical training draws on high-acuity urban Indianapolis settings (including Eskenazi Health as a core site), and the department is expanding with a new Bloomington program beginning 2026, reflecting institutional growth and investment in EM education. The program values residents oriented toward subspecialization, operational/administrative leadership, or academic scholarly output, given the depth of its fellowship ecosystem.
