The Robert Wood Johnson Foundation Scholars in Health Policy Research program helps to develop a new generation of creative health policy thinkers and researchers within the disciplines of economics, political science and sociology. Each year the program selects up to nine highly qualified individuals for two-year fellowships at one of three nationally prominent universities with the expectation that they will make important research contributions to future health policy in the United States. |
| Eligibility |
Recent graduates of doctoral programs in economics, political science and sociology, including junior faculty, to apply. They will give preference to applicants who have not previously worked extensively in health or health policy research.
- Applicants must have received a doctoral degree after January 1, 2005, but no later than July 2010. For those expecting to receive degrees in 2010, all degree requirements must be completed by July 15, 2010.
- All applicants must be citizens of the United States or its territories or have permanent residency status at the time of application.
- They embrace racial, ethnic and gender diversity, and encourage applications from candidates who come from groups that historically have been underrepresented in the three disciplines.
