An “Infectious” Summer Program for Rising High School
Juniors and Seniors Interested in Health Care Careers

Co-Sponsored by Truman State University and A.T. Still UniversityJuly 17-24, 2011

The Summer Talent Academy for Professions in Health (S.T.A.P.H.) offers talented students
interested in science and health a head start on college life and future careers in medicine and allied
health professions. Students live as college students while exploring the work of medical
professionals: they move into a residence hall, adapt to living with a roommate, eat dorm food, make
new friends, attend classes, and—most importantly—they work with highly regarded faculty and
health professionals from Truman State University and A.T. Still University of Health Sciences.

S.T.A.P.H. offers an integrated curriculum that exposes students to the methods and skills of a variety
of health professions, including, but not limited to: osteopathic medicine, nursing, and allied health
careers such as exercise science, audiology/speech pathology, physical and occupational therapy,
and nutrition.

***Interested students must be nominated by their high school counselor or
principal by Friday, October 29, 2011.***
