Basis of Policy

The University of Nebraska Medical Center is committed to providing a closer look at UNMC to those who may be considering a health profession or who just want to gain a greater understanding of UNMC’s role in improving the health of our citizenry. UNMC believes in an environment that is conducive to work, and in which health and safety concerns of employees, students, staff and the public are respected and in which disruptions are minimized. UNMC facilities and grounds can present a variety of potential hazards to individuals. This policy is intended to provide a process for tours with the least amount of disruption while minimizing the risk of injury and promoting a safe work environment.

Our tour program has three primary audiences – potential students, the general public and VIP’s. The various tour opportunities for these audiences are described below.

Potential Students

UNMC hosts periodic on-campus health career days and recruitment events for high school and undergraduate health focused prospective students. The health care career days and recruitment events provide prospective students with the opportunity to learn about the health professions education programs offered at UNMC.
