CDC/PRC Minority Fellowship
In collaboration with the Association of Schools of Public Health, CDC
selects doctoral-level students of ethnic or racial minority origin for
two years of training and guided research at a Prevention Research
Center. The fellowship provides training in prevention research and
community-based participatory research. The
fellows have academic
researchers and community participants as mentors for conducting
research with communities distinct by race or ethnicity, age, income, or
other socioeconomic factors. This fellowship affords an
opportunity to gain practical, first-hand experience in prevention
research. Fellows participate in projects under the direction of leading
experts in public health and prevention research. Fellows work on
current PRC projects and are encouraged to propose their own projects
related to PRC activities.
- Audience
- The fellowship is intended for under-represented minority students
(African American, Hispanic, American Indian or Alaska Native, and Asian
or Pacific Islander) currently enrolled in doctoral-level research
(e.g., PhD, DrPH, EdD, ScD) at an accredited university or school of
public health with a CDC-funded
Prevention Research Center.
- Duration
- 2 years.
