Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Epidemiology Elective Program – Call for
Applications
Are you a 3rd-year medical student interested in gaining public health, preventive medicine and applied
epidemiology experience from CDC experts during your 4th year? If so, check out the CDC Epidemiology
Elective Program for a six- to eight-week rotation at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention!
During their time at CDC, Epidemiology Elective students have the opportunity to assist in epidemiologic
investigations in areas such as infectious diseases, cancer, congenital malformations, environmental and
occupational diseases, injuries, chronic diseases, and reproductive health. Students work on diverse
projects; some have become co-authors on publications of major health importance, and others have
participated in the investigation of public health problems.
Most assignments are based at CDC headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia. However, other assignments can
be arranged, such as the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health in Cincinnati, Ohio,
Morgantown, West Virginia, or Anchorage, Alaska; the Indian Health Service in Albuquerque, New
Mexico; the Division of Vector-borne Infectious Diseases in Fort Collins, Colorado; or the Arctic
Investigations Program in Anchorage, Alaska.
For students who wish to rotate in the fall semester of their 4 th year,the application deadline and
date that supporting materials must be postmarked by is March 30 of the applicant’s 3rd year. These
students will be notified by mid-July, or as soon as selections have been made.
For students who wish to rotate in the spring semester of their 4 th year,the application deadline and
date that supporting materials must be postmarked by is May 30 of the applicant’s 3rd year. These
students will be notified by mid-September, or as soon as selections have been made.
