Professionals with a strong interest in applied epidemiology who meet one of the following qualifications are eligible to apply to the EIS:

Physician (MD or DO) with at least 1 year of clinical training and an active medical license in the United States (i.e., U.S. citizen or permanent resident).

A recipient of a doctoral degree (PhD or DrPH or equivalent) in health-related fields (e.g., epidemiology; biostatistics; the biological, environmental, social, behavioral, nutritional, or other relevant sciences).

Nurse, physician assistant, dentist, and pharmacist, with a master of public health (MPH) or equivalent degree and an active license in the United States (U.S. citizen or permanent resident).

Veterinarian with an MPH or equivalent degree or demonstrated public health experience or course work and an active license in the United States (U.S. citizens or permanent residents).

Non-U.S. citizens are eligible to apply. However because of the U.S. domestic nature of the program, only a small number of non-U.S. citizens are accepted into the program.

NOTE: U.S. citizens or permanent residents with a clinical degree of eligibility must have an active U.S. unrestricted license to practice that clinical specialty.
