FRONTERA Border Health Scholars Summer Program

Focusing Research on the Border Area (FRONTERA) Border Health Scholars is a 10-week research internship offered by the University of Arizona College of Medicine’s Office of Inclusive Excellence & Community Engagement. The course provides undergraduate, graduate and medical students with an increased understanding of public health disparities in the U.S.-Mexico Border Region through practical hands-on research experience, role model mentoring, and integration into a network of peer researchers/public health professionals invested in the development of each trainee. Participants are matched, according to their areas of interest, with an experienced scientist/researcher whose work has an impact on border health. Students will present the outcomes of their research at the end of the course.
