MHIF is seeking a diverse pool of interns based on a combination of demonstrated academic performance, leadership and career aspirations in the field of cardiology and/or research. Applicants must meet the following eligibility requirements:

• Internships are full-time and last 10-12 weeks in duration. We hope to have all interns present for orientation during the week of June 1-5, 2009.
• In compliance with federal law, upon hire, interns will be required to produce original documents verifying their identity and authorization to work in the United States.
• Upon acceptance of an internship offer, interns will be required to submit documentation to verify that they have met the immunization requirements established by Abbott Northwestern Hospital.

Internships are open to undergraduate students enrolled in an accredited degree program in health care disciplines such as premed, nursing, physics, biomedical engineering, exercise science, cardiac rehabilitation or other related disciplines. Post-baccalaureate premed applicants, or those in related fields, will also be considered.

Also, we’ve added a Scholarship section in our Resource Links for future scholarship / grant / internship / competition opportunities that arise.
