Michigan Wins $4.2 Million
Grant to Train Future Public Health Leaders
The first cohort of
undergraduate students from across the U.S. arrived last week in Michigan to
take part in Future Public Health Leaders (FPHL) summer program. The University
of Michigan School of Public Health is using a recently awarded $4.2 million
grant over five years to expand its minority undergraduate student recruitment
and internship programs. The funding comes from the Centers for Disease
Control’s "National Minority Undergraduate Student Program: A Public Health
Workplace Experience to Increase Minority Student Interest in Public Health."
The grant enables Michigan to
build upon its existing nationally recognized Summer Enrichment Program (SEP),
already run out of the Michigan department of health management and policy, to
the additional School of Public Health departments of environmental health
sciences and health behavior and health education. Associate professor Dr.
Richard Lichtenstein said the grant draws upon the documented successful model
that health management and policy has used for the last 26 years. "This grant
will fortify the School of Public Health's position as a national leader in the
effort to increase diversity in the leadership ranks of the public health work
force," Dr. Lichtenstein said.
