The HBCU IMPACT Program is a partnership between the David Eccles School of Business at the University of Utah, Howard University, and other Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs). The IMPACT (Internships, Mentorship, Professional Development, Academic Achievement, Community Service, Talent Enrichment) Program was built to immerse diverse and talented undergraduate and graduate students from all over the country in the unique and exciting environment of Salt Lake City, Utah. Students are given opportunities to intern at premier companies, gain and provide mentorship, enhance professional development skills, work toward academic achievement, engage with the community, and reach new heights.
Paid opportunity, housing provided.
Comprised of volunteer professional health and graduate students, residents, faculty, and post-docs, Project SHORT (Students for Higher Education Opportunities and Representation in Training) is the first 501(c)(3) nonprofit to offer pro bono mentoring for both professional health and graduate school admissions.
Project SHORT was created in 2019 with the goal of combatting socioeconomic and systemic inequalities in the medical and graduate school admissions processes. Private pre-health consulting is expensive, and perpetuates an already-wide socioeconomic gap in medicine. Similarly, systemic biases in STEM training at the undergraduate level can lead to deficits in access to resources for medical and graduate school applications.
By offering free, high-quality mentorship, Project SHORT aims to help diversify the pool of highly qualified applicants applying to graduate and professional health schools.
ACCESS Scholars represent women and individuals from all dimensions of diversity who embody the program values of excellence, leadership, and gender equity.
Black Physicians of Utah strives to build a community of Black physicians, residents, interns, medical students, and aspiring physicians dedicated to achieving health equity for Black and underserved Utahns.
