The personal statement is a vital part of the application process. It helps admissions representatives understand who you are, your unique experiences and why you chose to pursue a specific health profession.
Join us! Featured presentations by admissions officers and health professions advisors will provide tips and suggestions on how to craft a well-written personal statement to showcase your unique identity. A Q&A session will follow.

¡UF in Merida - Epidemiology & Spanish!

¡UF in Merida - Epidemiology & Spanish!

Help meet your language requirement (even if you have no Spanish language background) in an amazing location while learning all about infectious diseases, how to track outbreaks, and more!

Program highlights:
-- 6 weeks in the Yucatan, a tropical, very safe region in Mexico that is rich with Mayan, Mexican, and Spanish colonial heritage

-- 2 courses, each 3 credits: Understanding Infectious Diseases (BSC 4956, an introductory course taught by Dr. Hladish), and a Spanish language course tailored to your level

-- Spanish courses will be small (likely 5-10 students), taught by native Spanish speakers at the local university, at four different skill levels (beginner through advanced)

-- There will be many excursions! While my course will focus on infectious diseases, this is an immersive, holistic program. There is a reason why different diseases are a problem in different places: human culture and the natural environment matter. We will explore both--for their own sake, and to develop a richer understanding of what drives the disease dynamics of this amazing region.

-- Perhaps for 2018 only, program fees will be partially covered for many UF Bright Futures scholars.

Please contact Dr. Tom Hladish for more information: tjhladish@ufl.edu
