Interested in a future career related to cancer research or clinical oncology?

 

Get ready… because Dartmouth Cancer Scholars & Fellows is starting up again in the fall, and we are now accepting applications!

Dartmouth Cancer Scholars is a special program organized by the Norris Cotton Cancer Center, which is part of Geisel School of Medicine at Dartmouth and Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center. The Scholars are a group of 30 undergraduates (sophomores and up only) who meet most Mondays from 4 - 5:30 pm at the Norris Cotton Cancer Center at DHMC for a variety of activities including speakers, tours, and discussions. A free bus from campus provides transportation. The programs range from basic science to translational science and clinical care. This program is for undergraduates who want to learn more about the broad scope of careers in cancer. Students are introduced to a vast array of topics and issues in cancer including medicine, healthcare, and medical research.

We are also implementing Norris Cotton Cancer Center’s Oncology Certificate for Dartmouth Undergraduates, the only such program associated with a National Cancer Institute-Designated Comprehensive Cancer Center. The Oncology Certificate is awarded by Norris Cotton Cancer Center to Dartmouth undergraduates who have demonstrated significant involvement in the breadth of oncology during their time at the College. Oncology Certificate holders are named Student Members of Norris Cotton Cancer Center and are welcomed into the intellectual exchanges and collaboration that characterize our Research Programs.

The application for the program has been attached. To be admitted, you must be active at least two of the three terms of the year, and regular attendance to weekly meetings is mandatory. Please send any applications to [log in to unmask] by the end of September 14th.
