The MHRT 2023 applications are now open!

The Minority Health Research Training (MHRT) program provides directed reading coursework and research projects focused on global health, tropical medicine, infectious diseases and community-based participatory research for undergraduate and graduate students from underrepresented groups. It is a 2-semester (Spring and Summer) program where students will have coursework to learn about the 8 basic steps of research during the Spring semester. During the Summer, students have the opportunity to travel nationally/internationally to conduct research (conditional) for 40 hrs/week with their mentor. MHRT students will also receive roughly $1,000/month for 3 months while participating in the program.
