Center For Emergency Care Policy and Research (CECPR) Fellowship at Penn

The Penn Center for Emergency Care Policy and Research (CECPR) Year Out Medical Student Fellowship is offered to medical students with an interest in emergency care and health services research. As a partnership with the Center for Digital Health (CDH), the fellowship involves working one on one with a CECPR faculty member to complete a year-long research project. Additionally, students may be matched with faculty from associated centers PAIR, PISC, CHERP, and LDI as appropriate for the student's interest. Fellows receive financial compensation, mentorship, and professional development opportunities.

​For more information on applying, fill out the CECPR contact form or email penncecpr@pennmedicine.upenn.edu and indicate your interest. Applicants are asked to send in a CV and statement of interest and applications are accepted and reviewed on a rolling basis beginning in the fall of each year. Most fellowships last from July to July. Periodically, CECPR offers summer fellowships to interested medical students.

​CECPR has a special interest in supporting the career development of Black, Indigenous, Latinx, first-generation, and low-income students.
