Project Imhotep
at Morehouse College is an eleven-week summer internship supported by
the CDC's Office of Minority Health and Health Equity (OMHHE), designed
to create a public health workplace experience to increase student
interest in minority health.
The program begins with two weeks of intense educational training in public health courses to equip interns with the academic information necessary to complete the program. During the following nine weeks, interns are paired in a one-on-one mentored relationship with experts at CDC, academic institutions, local and state agencies, or community based organizations to complete a public health research project. Interns will culminate their experience by giving an oral poster presentation to their peers, mentors and public health professionals and develop a research manuscript suitable for publication in a scientific journal.
