This week 🦅💙
If you or someone you know is a high school student with Native American ancestry that is currently enrolled in 10th, 11th, or 12th grade and interested in pursuing a health science career, this is a great opportunity for you!
UNMC has spots for up to 12 high school students who are currently enrolled in 10th, 11th, and 12th grade to join college students in a FREE weeklong summer enrichment program for individuals interested in health science professions on Sun, July 7 – Sat, July 13, 2024. The goal of the FREE Summer Health Professions Education Program (SHPEP), Youth Enjoy Science (YES) Weeklong Institute for Students in High School (WISH) is to strengthen the career development of Native American students underrepresented in the health professions and improve their access to information and resources that can prepare them for college success in a health-science field with a focus on cancer-related careers.
The program will take place at the University of Nebraska Medical Center Campus. Students will be provided free overnight lodging at Scott Residence Hall at the University of Nebraska at Omaha. Each student must have transportation to Omaha to arrive by 3:00 pm on Sunday and arrange for pickup upon conclusion of the program on Saturday around 2:00 pm. If needed, students can leave as early as 12:00 pm on that Saturday. All meals and transportation during the program are provided.
