Post-Graduate Training Opportunities in Occupational & Environmental Medicine

» Occupational & Environmental Medicine Residency List

AOEC has prepared a recently (3/08) updated directory of this information.  This lists all the currently active ACGME approved residency programs in Occupational Medicine.

» Epidemic Intelligence Service (EIS) through NIOSH

While most of the publicity for the EIS deals with their infectious disease work, there are great opportunities for occupational health professionals as well. EIS officers who choose to work with NIOSH can be involved in health hazard evaluations, surveillance, and epidemiologic field studies.

NIOSH currently has assignments for EIS officers in:

with the potential for travel to investigation sites throughout the US and occasionally abroad.

The program is open to physicians, dentists or RNs with MPH or equivalent degrees, professionals with doctoral-level degrees in health related fields (e.g. epidemiology, toxicology, biostatistics, etc.), and veterinarians with MPH or equivalent degrees.

These positions represent an excellent opportunity for those interested in pursuing an academic career. There is ample hands-on experience, as well as great potential for publication of findings from original public health and research investigations. Multiple opportunities also exist to work with colleagues in other government agencies such as EPA, DOE, OSHA, MSHA, and the state and local health departments. A number of EIS Officers have been able to obtain concurrent junior faculty appointments in NIOSH-affiliated university health sciences programs.

EIS Officers serve a two year assignment. The option is currently available for them to serve as either a member of Commissioned Corps of the Public Health Service or as part of the federal civil service.

Application information can be found at the EIS web site at the CDC. EIS positions are now described at this site. For questions about the NIOSH programs, please contact Richard Ehrenberg, MD at 404-639-3346
