jazzyjoker Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Looks like that would be a sweet gig for someone wanting to get into the academic side. Will have to bookmark this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MainePA Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Good book about the EIS history and cases they have investigated, quick read: http://www.amazon.com/Beating-Back-Devil-Maryn-McKenna/dp/1439123101/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1320327721&sr=8-1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

physasst Posted November 4, 2011 Share Posted November 4, 2011 http://www.cdc.gov/EIS/Eligibility.html E, you should probably contact them to make sure that they will accept a DHSc degree, they should, but you have to remember that it is a fairly new degree here in the US. For example, many of the postdoctoral NIH and AHRQ grants don't list the DHSc as an eligible degree. (It can be, BTW, but I had to actually talk to the selection people for both to confirm that). I think it is a great option..... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderator EMEDPA Posted November 4, 2011 Author Moderator Share Posted November 4, 2011 Doctoral-level Scientists (PhD, DrPH, ScD, etc.) Doctoral level scientists with backgrounds in Epidemiology Biostatistics Biological, environmental, social, behavioral, or nutritional sciences Other relevant health science I would certainly check if I got serious about this. their criteria certainly seems to spell out DHSc though. I take epidemiology, biostats, etc as part of my global health track at nova. we have a job board at the nova site with many CDC/UN/WHO/USAID/etc jobs posted so apparently they are open to DHSc grads.
