The Jacobs School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences seeks medical students or biomedical sciences graduate students to work on projects that address social, educational or health care inequities.
This fellowship provides an opportunity to develop leadership skills to advance equity and justice in institutional settings and community-based organizations, and advance the Jacobs School’s mission to create a supportive learning environment.
Fellows will develop a project in concert with a mentor in the Jacobs School, an administrative unit or an affiliated institution.
Fellows will work on the research and design, implementation or analysis of a project related to equity and justice. Projects provide experience in creating institutional change, such as policy development or process improvement, and working in interprofessional clinical or administrative teams.
Fellows will meet with mentors who will assist in developing a work plan and monitor progress.
Fellows devote 120 hours, working with a project team, to identify factors that contribute to success in advancing social equity and justice in institutions.
Projects are expected to be completed in a period of 12 months, from the appointment date of June 1, 2023.
A public presentation during the month of April, will be taking place to engage and inform our Jacobs School Community of the status and findings of each project.
Medical, master’s and doctoral graduate students training under a faculty member with a primary appointment in the Jacobs School are eligible to apply.
$3,500 per project and funding for fellowship-related travel to present at local or a national meeting.
Applications will be reviewed and selected each year by a taskforce selected by Diversity, Inclusion, and Learning Environment Committee.
