The Travelers Summer Research Fellowship Program for Premedical Minority Students is designed to give participants deeper insights into the wide range of options that exist for minority physicians. Through the experiences of laboratory or clinical research, classroom lectures, seminars on public health issues, practical discussions by physicians from different specialties, and observations of hospital care, the college students gain a clearer picture of both the demands and opportunities they will encounter in medicine. Students receive a $140/week cost of living allowance and are housed rent-free in the dormitory but are required to pay for meals and living expenses.
