NOW ACCEPTING APPLICATIONS FOR COHORT 5 STARTING FALL 2022
AHEC Scholars is a two-year program for current health professions students wishing to enhance their education by gaining additional knowledge and experience in rural and/or underserved urban settings.
Between 15-20 individuals are selected each year for a cohort of inter-disciplinary health professions students. Participants gain additional training in core topics such as Cultural Competency, Social Determinants of Health, Behavioral Health Integration, InterProfessional Education, Practice Transformation, and Emerging health topics.
Students also receive $1000 stipend for completing the program as well as an Honor Cord to wear at graduation, certificate from the National AHEC Organization, and more.
Applications are accepted year round, but cohorts start each fall. Students must be enrolled in a health professions degree or certificate program and be two years from program or degree completion.
