CSTE Fellowship opportunities-great for IH students interested in epidemiology
Attached is an excellent Applied Epi Fellowship opportunity which starts in the summer of 2014. Applications are due by Jan 17th. Here are some quick highlights:
· Focus areas include Infectious Disease, Chronic Diseases, Environmental Health, Infectious Diseases (including HAI, Quarantine, and Food Safety), Injury Prevention, Maternal and Child Health, Occupational Health, Oral Health, and Substance Abuse.
· Fellows have 2 mentors at their site, so there is a lot of guidance as they learn the ropes
· Candidates are NOT required to be epi concentrators, but must have had at least 3 courses of epi, and 1 of biostats.
· Applications are due January 17, and there is an essay requirement and 3 letters of recommendation, so applicants may want to get started soon.
· There is also one-year fellowship offered by CSTE – the Applied Public Health Informatics Fellowship. Further information about both fellowships is below, and fact sheets are attached.
· Interested students can contact Natalie Kratz, 2013 MPH graduate, with any questions. She is happy to speak with them and can be reached at nkratz@bu.edu.
