Roswell Scholars Program

Trocaire College and Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center partner in Roswell Scholars program

Trocaire College and Roswell Park Comprehensive Cancer Center are getting ready for the 2nd year of a partnership to improve career pathways for students in the health sciences and to build a pipeline of employees. One feature of the partnership is the Roswell Scholars Program.

A second cohort of 10 students from across Trocaire’s healthcare programs will be selected to participate in this program. Students will work with Roswell Park staff to learn about potential career paths with the goal of being hired upon completion of their degree. Roswell Park will provide mentors and shadow days, as well as professional development seminars to these students on an annual basis. Additionally, the cohort will meet with a Trocaire program coordinator to synthesize their Roswell experience into their educational experience. Students who participate in this program will qualify for a $500.00 scholarship per semester.

Qualifications: Students must be in or entering the second year of their healthcare program, have excelled academically and have shown the motivation, initiative, and dedication to make the most of this opportunity.
