Our Impact Scholars program supports early-career scholars building interdisciplinary careers in global health research and program development. Scholars join a small cohort for a one-year appointment (with the potential to renew for a second), working alongside faculty mentors from across U-M and connecting to a network that spans disciplines, schools, and global partners.
Scholar projects align with one or more of the center's priority themes:
Open to candidates who have completed a terminal degree (PhD, MD, or equivalent) within the past few years, and who meet eligibility requirements for a postdoctoral position at the University of Michigan.
Applications for the 2027–2028 cohort are currently paused while the program evaluates its next iteration. Interested scholars can check back for updates, or reach out to learn more.
