EMRA Pediatric Fellowship Outline
PEM fellowships participate in the ERAS application process and NRMP Match process. For EM graduates it is a minimum 2-year requirement (all programs are required to offer a 2-year track, but some strongly encourage/enforce a 3-year track). Pediatric graduates have a 3-year requirement because of a research requirement. Matches are announced in the fall prior to July matriculation.

Investigate programs on AAMC/FREIDA website (under BOTH the Pediatric and EM sub selections) and on EMRA Match.
