in the sciences, that will pay you to conduct environmental health science research with some of the leading experts in environmental health science. The program offers each participant two years of paid year-round training and research experience (35 hours/week
for 12 weeks in both summer 2015 and summer 2016, and 15 hours/week during the 2015-2016 and 2016-2017 academic years) in EHS-TRUE faculty mentors’ research groups to help students develop an understanding of environmental health sciences, to apply classroom
learning to research in environmental health, and to aid in deciding on a career path. Students take an introduction to environmental health sciences course and an introduction to biomedical research careers course during their two years in the program and
participate in activities (workshops, retreats, scientific conferences) to expand their research experience. The goal of EHS-TRUE is to prepare undergraduates from under-represented backgrounds to enter graduate programs in the environmental health sciences.</span><span style="font-family:"Cambria","serif";color:black"><o:p></o:p></span></p>
