The Association of Schools and Programs of Public Health (ASPPH) offers recent graduates from ASPPH-member schools and programs an exciting opportunity to gain practical public health experience at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Applications are currently being accepted for the 2023 ASPPH/CDC Public Health Fellowship Program. The deadline to apply is Thursday, March 2, 2023.

The ASPPH/CDC Public Health Fellowship Program offers culturally relevant and applied mentored learning experiences for early career professionals with graduate degrees in public health (Masters and Doctoral level). This next generation of public health leaders will have an opportunity to round out their academic training and gain practical public health experience through exposure to state-of-the-art technology and databases; acquisition of skills and knowledge to enhance their careers; and interaction with technical experts in their chosen fields.

ASPPH is seeking to fill 21 new fellowship opportunities in various tracks including Health Education, Interpersonal Violence, Overdose Prevention, Suicide Prevention, Mental Health, Health Equity, Emergency Preparedness, and others.

Fellowship assignments will be based at CDC offices in Atlanta, GA and are full-time training opportunities for one year beginning in September 2023. There is the possibility of extension for up to three years. Detailed program information can be accessed on the ASPPH website; applications may be submitted through the ASPPH online application system.

To qualify for this fellowship, candidates must have received their masters or doctorate degrees from an ASPPH-member, CEPH-accredited, school or program of public health within the last five years and also be U.S. citizens or permanent residents (green card status).

A full list of CEPH-accredited, ASPPH-member schools and programs can be found here.
