Welcome to TIP!
Tennessee Institutes for Pre-Professionals (TIP)
(formally PFP)
Students in Tennessee have a distinct opportunity to LEARN
FOR LIFE. The Tennessee Institutes for Pre-Professionals
(TIP), commonly referred to as the Tennessee Pre-Health
Science Fellowship Program, offers this opportunity to residents
of Tennessee who are members of underrepresented groups and wish to pursue a career in medicine, dentistry,
pharmacy or veterinary medicine. UTHSC actively seeks applications
from veterans and from individuals who are historically
underrepresented in science and in the health care professions:
underrepresented minority students, non-traditional students,
students with disabilities, and students who represent the first in
their families to pursue higher education.
TIP offers year-round advice, support,
and activities designed to assist students to realize their career
goals. TIP is a State effort with participation by all the State's
public colleges. TIP's ultimate goal is to increase the representation
and active participation of under represented groups in health professions
training and practice.
