The Cancer Epidemiology Education in Special Populations (CEESP) Program is a funded training and educational program to prepare master students in public health in the field of cancer epidemiology research in special populations (international and minority settings).

The CEESP Program provides funding for MPH and PhD students to travel and conduct summer research in U.S. minority or international settings. The amount awarded is based upon each applicant’s proposed research project and its associated costs. Funding can cover costs including but not limited to:

  • Transportation (e.g., plane, train, bus)
  • Living (e.g., rent, utility bills)
  • Medical expenses (e.g., vaccinations, required preventative medication)
  • Language training
  • Laboratory materials
  • A stipend/allowance

CEESP is funded by a grant from the National Cancer Institute of the National Institutes of Health (R25 CA112383).
