Application Deadline: August 4 2025
Applications for the 2025 Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) Fellowships are now open. UICC’s Technical Fellowships provide cancer professionals the chance to gain new knowledge, skills and techniques in cancer control through short learning visits of two weeks to two months’ duration. This specific fellowship opportunity was originally launched in 1976, and was called the International Cancer Research Technology Transfer awards (ICRETT), and has facilitated knowledge exchange for the last four decades.
Eligibility Requirements
Public health professionals including epidemiologists, health educators, social workers, nutritionists, administrators and other specialised professionals working in the field of cancer control; cancer researchers performing translational, clinical and/or implementation research; clinicians, nurses and pathologists.
Applicants must hold a minimum of a Master’s degree, while qualified medical doctors may be considered in the absence of a higher degree (i.e an MD) if they hold or are within a year of holding a board certification (or equivalent) in a cancer-related specialty, and registered nurses who have an RN qualification are also eligible to apply. An equivalent one-year’s training qualification in a specialty related to cancer post university degree can be accepted as an equivalent to a Master’s degree, for example training as a cancer registrar. All candidates should have worked in the field of cancer for at least five years prior to applying. Medical and PhD Students are not eligible to apply.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Benefits
UICC’s Fellowship award amounts represent the total of an estimated economy return flight cost, plus a contribution towards the living costs during the duration of the fellowship visit.
Flight costs
Flight costs are estimated based on the applicant’s departure airport and home country, as well as the location of the host institution. These estimates take into account the fellowship’s start and end dates, with an additional buffer to accommodate potential fluctuations in airfare due to time of booking.
Living costs
Each Fellowship award will include a contribution towards living costs, considering an estimated average monthly cost of living per person according to the income group of the country of the host institution, as categorised by the World Bank.
How To Apply
If an individual from a UICC member organisation is interested to apply for a Fellowship and requires support to identify a host supervisor or institution, please contact fellows@uicc.org with the following details;
- The title of their organisation
- Copy of their CV
- Detailed description of the type of skills to be developed during a fellowship
Support to applicants from UICC member organisations will also be provided through the UICC Connect platform.
