FAQ's on medical residencies?

Established in 1972 as a branch of the main medical school campus, the College of Medicine–Tulsa has enabled the University to use hospital training facilities in Tulsa to establish medical residencies and provide for expanded health care capabilities in the state. Under this program, selected third- and fourth-year students receive their clinical training in hospitals in the Tulsa community. From this humble beginning, the OU-Tulsa campus has flourished. Between 1972 and 1999, OU's presence in Tulsa has grown but also scattered. In 1999, a 60 acre (24 ha) site formerly owned by BP Amoco was sold to the University for $24 million (even though the property was appraised at $48 million). The site already featured a 370,000 square foot (34,400 m²) building with office, labs, and classrooms. The university quickly purchased this property with the help of a $10 million gift from the Charles and Lynn Schusterman Family Foundation. The existing building was given the name the Schusterman Center. In 2003, Tulsa voters approved the Vision2025 plan for capital improvements to the Tulsa metro area. Included in this plan was $30 million for a new Research and Medical Clinic to be built near the existing Schusterman Center. Construction is currently underway.
