This
fellowship is being implemented by the Public Health Institute and its
partner Consortium of Universities for Global Health (CUGH).
It is a U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-funded
program that supports promising emerging global health professionals to develop
the technical skills needed to respond to today’s public health challenges.
Fellows have the exciting opportunity to work with leading CDC experts and
contribute to public health projects around the world.
Fellows
are placed in Washington DC, Atlanta GA, and in CDC offices abroad where they
work on the front lines of global health and hone their professional skills. To
qualify, applicants must:
- Have an MPH or PhD in Public
Health from a CEPH-accredited school or program
- Have received their qualifying
degree prior to the beginning of the fellowship or within the last five
years
- Be a U.S. citizen or legal
permanent resident and authorized to work in the U.S.
We
are seeking opportunities to promote our fellowship, and we would be interested
in promoting it to your MPH students.
