Hutton Honors College

Selected students receive fully-funded training in a program which is accelerated, international, collaborative, and multi-disciplinary in nature. Students are provided with access to the most extensive network of biomedical research labs and technological resources in the world.

A conference call for students interested in learning more about the NIH/Oxford/Cambridge Scholars Program will be held on DECEMBER 15, 2008 at 8:00pm (EST). Students need not participate in the call to apply to the Scholars Program.
Those interested in participating in the conference calls should call or email JoAnn DeCesaris at (301)762-6155.

The NIH/Oxford/Cambridge Scholars Program selects extraordinarily talented students who are dedicated to pursuing careers in biomedical research. The National Institutes of Health, Oxford University and Cambridge University have partnered to provide a unique training experience for exceptionally talented students.

Those in the NIH/Oxford/Cambridge Scholars Program are from many backgrounds. Aside from the usual undergraduate biomedical studies, there are Scholars with engineering, physics, math, computer science and other majors. NIH/Oxford/Cambridge Scholars come from large and small colleges and universities across America. Among the ranks of current NIH/Oxford/Cambridge Scholars are those who also hold the distinction of being Rhodes, Marshall, Churchill, Fulbright, Gates, Goldwater, and Howard Hughes Scholars.

We look forward to the applications of your most outstanding students interested in PhD and MD/PhD training in biomedical research.
