USU graduates have a higher likelihood of long-term military service and often hold leadership positions within the Military Health System. Surgical faculty have opportunities for teaching, coaching, research, faculty development, certificate, degree programs, and academic promotion at USU. Both programs provide unique opportunities for medical education and military service as a surgeon.
