The CDC-Hubert Global Health Fellowship

The CDC-Hubert Global Health Fellowship provides opportunities for third- and fourth-year medical and veterinary students to gain public health experience in an international setting. Each year, 10 highly qualified individuals spend 6–12 weeks working in a developing country alongside recognized experts from CDC and other national and international health agencies. Fellows receive a stipend of $4,000 to cover travel expenses; fellowship opportunities and locations vary each year.
Applications are accepted from January 17 to February 18, 2011.
