The Organization: The University of Michigan is one of the nation’s premiere universities and is among the most highly regarded in the world. The University is home to Michigan Medicine, comprised of the Medical School, its clinical enterprise, the University of Michigan Health (UM-H) and Michigan Health Corp., the legal entity that allows the Academic Medical Center to enter into partnerships, affiliations, joint ventures, and other business activities. The entire U-M community takes immense pride in having a health system routinely ranked among the nation’s very best, and one that has been recognized as one of the best employers in the nation. UM-H is composed of C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital, the Von Voigtlander Women’s Hospital, University Hospital, University of Michigan Health-West (formerly Metro Health), Frankel Cardiovascular Center, and the University of Michigan Medical Group which currently houses and supports more than 3,000 physicians and 140 clinics at 40 sites throughout Southeastern Michigan. The faculty and staff of C.S. Mott Children’s Hospital and Von Voigtlander Women’s Hospital are committed to providing extraordinary care for children, women and their families, and pursuing innovations that improve treatment and quality of life for our patients.

The Hospitals are comprised of 348 pediatric inpatient beds, 50 maternity rooms, 46 private NICU rooms, 16 ORs and a 9-story, 245,000 square foot outpatient wing.

The city also boasts a nationally recognized public school system and a variety of private and parochial schools. Regularly receiving national attention as one of the best places, Ann Arbor is much more than a university town; it is home to more than 100 high tech, research, and light-industrial employers. Major employers outside the university and government also call Ann Arbor home. The area is most well-known for its globally inspired cultural offerings. This diverse community has many attractions, with over 300 restaurants; shopping, world-class museums; galleries; theaters; and clubs with live music. The city's numerous off-street trails and lightly traveled neighborhood streets attract joggers and bike riders throughout the year. Cyclists enjoy the extensive trail system, which winds along the Huron River. Endless opportunities for recreation are also available in the city's 159 parks, which feature trails; golf; canoe liveries; swimming pools; ice rinks; tennis courts; athletic fields; volunteer opportunities; programs for every age, interest, and ability; and so much more.
