Education and Training Opportunities

Administrative Fellowship Program

Established in 2007, the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute Administrative Fellowship Program provides essential management and leadership training that contributes to the growth and development of tomorrow's health care leaders.

The Fellowship Program is grounded in ambulatory care training and administration, and also features the opportunity to work in hospital-based settings that include Brigham and Women's Hospital and Children's Hospital Boston.

Dana-Farber has several ambulatory care satellite facilities and is currently building a new ambulatory care facility, offering Fellows additional opportunities to learn about health care planning, capital expansion, and the clinical business development process.

The Dana-Farber Administrative Fellowship has been designed to provide:

  • Knowledge of organizational dynamics, gained from working with senior leadership throughout the Institute;
  • An opportunity for inexperienced managers to obtain an applied foundation in financial management, ambulatory care management, research administration, human resources administration, facility and strategic planning;
  • An understanding of the common values shared by all health care professionals at Dana-Farber;
  • Advanced experience directed towards preparing Fellows for administrative leadership positions in research/academic medical institutes.
