Opportunity Summary:
This opportunity is a continuation cooperative agreement from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (HHS-CDC), titled "CDC's National Undergraduate Student Program: A Public Health Workplace Experience to Increase Student Interest in Public Health." It sits in the Health funding activity category and is listed under CFDA (Catalog of Federal Domestic Assistance) number 93.283. The central purpose, as stated in the title and brief description, is to support a national undergraduate student program that provides a hands-on workplace experience in public health, with the explicit goal of increasing students' interest in entering or continuing in the public health field.
The mechanism is a cooperative agreement, which generally means the CDC expects to have substantial involvement in the work beyond simply issuing funds. In practice, cooperative agreements often involve ongoing collaboration, technical input, and coordination with the award recipient to ensure the program is implemented in a way that aligns with CDC priorities and program standards. Because this is categorized as a continuation, it typically indicates the funding is intended to continue an existing project or award rather than launch a brand-new standalone initiative, often tied to satisfactory progress and the availability of funds.
Eligibility is listed broadly as "Others," with a note that applicants should consult the additional eligibility text in the full announcement for clarification. That phrasing usually signals that eligibility may include specific types of organizations outside the standard categories (for example, certain nonprofits, educational institutions, professional associations, or other entities that meet CDC-defined criteria), but the exact eligible applicant types are not fully spelled out in the summary metadata provided.
The opportunity number is CDC RFA MN11 110106CONT16. The posting date and creation date are both May 23, 2016, and the application closing date is June 23, 2016 (with the original and current closing dates matching, indicating no extension was recorded in the provided data). The award ceiling is shown as 0, which generally means the ceiling was not specified in this metadata extract or was handled elsewhere in the full funding announcement, rather than implying that no funding would be provided. The "ExpectedAwards" field appears blank in the provided extract, so the number of anticipated awards is not stated here.
In plain terms, the program is about placing or engaging undergraduate students in real public health workplace settings so they can gain practical exposure to the field, build relevant skills, and develop a stronger interest in pursuing public health careers or further education. The CDC framing suggests a workforce development and pipeline-building emphasis, using experiential learning as the main strategy to encourage undergraduates to consider public health as a professional path.
