Preference goes to applicants with hands-on experience in health/social sciences serving Indigenous communities. The Social and Behavioral Health Sciences specialization requires previous coursework in mathematics/statistics, biology/human development, and sociology/psychology, with preference given to those with applied health/social sciences or research experience.
