WHERE I AM NOW? • Currently, I am a junior at Buford High School. • The classes I have and am taking will help me pursue an MD in Anatomy and Physiology. • MY CURRENT GPA IS 3.4
AFTER GRADUATING HS I WILL ATTEND………. • The US Air Force Academy • I will pursue a bachelor’s degree in Anatomy and Physiology • The tuition is free and I can cover any other costs with an Air Force scholarship that will only require four years of service afterwards.
AFTER RECEIVING A B.S. I WILL ATTEND The Uniformed Services University of Health Science for my MD The tuition is free and I will receive the pay of a military officer. Because there are no dorms, the cost of living will vary based on what kind o living situation I am in.
REQUIREMENTS FOR BEING AN EMERGENCY MEDICINE PHYSICIAN • Completion of a ACGME- or AOA-accredited program of postgraduate specialty training • Fellowships can be competed for during service as an EMP • Salary varies based on rank • High possibility of receiving this career as doctors are needed for as long as there are active duty airmen • CAREER SKILLS NEEDED • Practice leading-edge combat medicine and have the opportunity to provide initial trauma care to deployed Airmen in theater hospitals • Direct emergency services, disaster planning and provide training to nurses and medics in all aspects of emergency medical treatment. • Possibly participate in special operations assignments and be the lead physician for critical care air transport teams
I WILL WORK WHEREVER MY JOB TAKES ME • As my career choice is as a part of the military, I won’t have a set place of employment. I might be stationed somewhere, but I am likely to be moved at any time. I could be on a base, in a plane, or anywhere else they decide they want me.
