HEI's Summer Fellowship Program
Summer Fellowship
Fellow applications are now open until January 6, 2025! Apply here.
HEI is excited to continue its Summer Fellowship Program for another year! The program aims to encourage undergraduate students from backgrounds that are underrepresented in the environmental health sciences to explore research opportunities in this area. Environmental health fields are defined broadly and include environmental exposure assessment, epidemiology, public health, and environmental justice among other areas. A list of previous year fellows, mentors, and research projects is available here.
The program provides financial support for a 10-week summer fellowship during the months of June through August. Start and end dates will be flexible based on academic calendars, with office hours occurring between June 2 and August 22. The program is run in collaboration with the International Society of Exposure Science and the International Society for Environmental Epidemiology. The fellowship is open to mentors and students based in the United States. A joint HEI/ISEE/ISES committee selects prospective fellows and matches them with mentors at academic and nonprofit institutions and state or local government institutions.
