Welcome to Marquette

Welcome to Marquette!

Marquette, Michigan is an award winning community: we've been cited as an All American City, a Cool City, a top city to live and bike, and one of the best small cities to raise a family. There is much to offer here, and our lifestyle is just the tip of the iceberg!

Come train in this pristine setting with our clear skies, clean water, the northern lights... and one of few rural places in the nation with a 315-bed hospital with Level II Trauma Center and Neonatal Intensive Care Unit.

Unopposed Program

We are the only graduate medical education program in Marquette and our residents work directly with attending physicians in 65 specialties and subspecialties.

You'll receive a well-rounded residency experience at Marquette General Hospital, a federally designated regional medical center with 12,000 annual inpatient discharges and more than 350,000 outpatient registrations a year.

A diverse clinic practice serves 3,000 patient visits per month and our graduates have said that their clinical experience has exceeded their expectations.

We attract excellent applicants from all over the country. The result is a diverse and stimulating group of colleagues with whom to work, play, learn and grow.

Outreach activities and rural rotations in rural Upper Michigan communities provide the option to experience small town medicine.

The presence of the nation's only Olympic Education Center at neighboring Northern Michigan University strengthens the sports medicine curriculum and provides additional recreational resources for residents and their families.

As a university community with health care as its primary industry, Marquette is a cosmopolitan small town offering the best of many worlds. Our community offers an excellent public school system for families of all ages.

Water sports and skiing can be enjoyed only 15 minutes from the hospital, and family activities are available throughout the year. Marquette County has 85K of groomed cross-country ski trails and several Nordic skiing events. The university and community offer varied cultural events, and the city's people represent the small town America of Norman Rockwell.
