Centers for Disease Control Public Health Summer Fellows Program
The Public Health Summer Fellows Program offers an eight week summer program to rising junior or senior college students and recent college and university graduates. The purpose of the program is to expose under-represented minority students to the excitement, relevance and promise of public health at a time when the experience can influence their professional goals and career choice. The program utilizes the faculty and staff from various public health institutions within metro Atlanta.
Participants will be assigned to community based public health internships. These research projects are supervised by experienced public health professionals and scientists. Weekly seminars will cover recent public health issues. Fellows will have access to Libraries and campus activities of the participating institutions. The use of public transportation may be necessary to reach certain project sites. Weekly leisure group activities are planned to foster bonding and team spirit.
Fellow’s will receive a stipend for successfully completing the program. Housing, meals, and travel to and from Atlanta, Georgia will be provided. Local public transportation costs will also be covered.
