Wisconsin Fellowship

Dear Colleague:

We would like to call your attention to an outstanding Fellowship opportunity for your graduating students in public health and allied sciences.

The Wisconsin Population Health Service Fellowship is a two-year service and training program designed for masters prepared individuals in public health and related fields; candidates with doctoral degrees may also apply. The two-year program provides applicants with practical field assignments in community based, non-profit, governmental and health service organizations, and includes academic and practice based mentoring, continued training opportunities and a competitive salary and benefit package.

In partnership with the Wisconsin Department of Health Services and the City of Milwaukee Health Department, the program provides placements within these two academic health departments, in addition to regional health departments and community organizations. Community placement sites have included: the March of Dimes, the American Cancer Society, Planned Parenthood and the Task Force on Family Violence. We anticipate that Fellows will gain experience in both urban and rural, governmental and non-profit organizations. Placements are for two years and are based on the interests and needs of Fellows and agencies.
The application process for the recruitment of four new Fellows for 2013-2015 (July 1 start date) is currently open and closes on December 17, 2012.

Please notify your recent graduates as well as those expecting to graduate in June of this opportunity. Students with an interest in continuing their professional career in our state, minority candidates and/or those interested in working in rural communities are especially encouraged to apply.
