The 2020 Health Professions Shadowing Program application is now live!

Students can access the application directly by visiting the CPHA website: https://prehealth.wisc.edu/health-professions-shadowing-program/.

All applications are due January 26, 2020 at 11:59pm.

What is the Health Professions Shadowing Program (HPSP)?

HPSP is a structured, two-week residential summer program for students from populations that are underserved and underrepresented in health care, and who lack connections to health care professionals. This program is housed in the Center for Pre-Health Advising in direct partnership with the University of Wisconsin School of Medicine and Public Health.

Program participants spend over thirty hours shadowing providers at UW Health and affiliated area clinics, visiting healthcare facilities, and learning about current trends in health care from providers in the community. Students engage in professional development workshops, community volunteering, and hear from guest speakers on a wide variety of topics. The program is dedicated to supporting first-generation college students, students of color, students from rural areas, and students from socioeconomically disadvantaged backgrounds.

For more detailed information about HPSP please visit the CPHA website: https://prehealth.wisc.edu/health-professions-shadowing-program/.

If you have questions about the program please contact Alexis Steinbach directly: [email protected].
