Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME) Internship Program

The Office of the Chief Medical Examiner Internship (OCME) application for ¶¶Òõ̽̽ undergraduates, recent grads, and Post-Bac Pre-Med's is facilitated by FOUR. This unfunded internship provides students with direct exposure to the day-to-day activities of the OCME. This is a highly competitive opportunity with limited space, which means students may need to apply more than once. Applications from first year students will not be accepted. We encourage students from any academic path to apply.

The Application Process has multiple reviews. The application comes to FOUR, which reviews the submissions, and provides the most qualified students from the applicant pool to the State of Vermont Medical Examiner for further review. Being selected by ¶¶Òõ̽̽ does NOT guarantee acceptance into the program.

The Internship program requires students to have two weekday mornings (8am-12pm) available during the term for which you apply.

Important Dates & Deadlines

  • Spring Internship (January-April) deadline: 3rd Friday in the prior November
  • Summer Internship (May-August) deadline: 3rd Friday in February of that year

It is the mission of the Office of the Chief Medical Examiner (OCME) to ensure superior death investigations in a system that will operate efficiently and serve the needs of the citizens of Vermont. We do this by collecting and providing the best possible data to inform decisions at the individual, community, program and policy levels.
