6:00 PM – Networking Reception
6:30 -7:30 PM – Specialty Rotations

The 9th annual “Speed Dating for Your Specialty” medical student mentoring event is hosted by the Metro Omaha Medical Society .

Medical students from both Creighton and UNMC are given the unique opportunity to interact face-to-face with established physicians to discuss a variety of medical specialties.  The event, designed with a “speed dating” format, seats physicians at individual tables labeled with their medical specialty.  Medical students may select any table (specialty) of interest and will have 8-9 minutes to gain an overview of that specialty and ask any questions.  When time is up, they rotate to another specialty.  By the end of the one hour session, students gain valuable information about six different specialties and established potentially valuable contacts as their careers evolve.

The event is free to attend.  Beverages and hors d’oeuvres will be served.

To register, please call the Metro Omaha Medical Society at 402.393.1415
