Introduction
The McGovern Summer Health Professions Education Program (SHPEP) is a free, six week academic and summer enrichment program funded by the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation for college freshman and sophomores interested in medicine, dentistry, nursing, or public health.
The program has been shaping careers and changing the lives of premedical and predental college students for 30 years, formerly as the Summer Medical and Dental Education Program (SMDEP). Today, the SHPEP initiative has expanded to include other health careers, such as nursing, pharmacy, physician assistant and public health.
