>> At NIOSH, we have many unique opportunities
for new EIS Officers.
Officers will not only be trained in applied epidemiology,
but will also gain unique experience in the field
of occupational safety and health.
>> NIOSH has really allowed me to carve out a niche
in occupational and infectious disease.
So, I really appreciate the opportunities
that NIOSH has presented to me.
>> NIOSH Officers fully participate
in all EIS activities.
This includes CDC-wide emergency investigations
of non-occupational disease and injury outbreaks, in the U.S.
and throughout the world.
>> During EIS at NIOSH, I worked
on the reproductive epidemiology team,
where I studied different workplace reproductive hazards.
But I was also involved in different projects related
to exposure assessment, and firefighter safety health.
>> NIOSH also offers opportunities to work at one
of our state of the art laboratories, outside Atlanta.
EIS Officers can chose to work
in either Morgantown, West Virginia
or Cincinnati, Ohio.
Morgantown is among the top rated U.S. cities to live.
It is the home of West Virginia University,
and has big city opportunities, with a small town feel.
Its location offers quick access to hiking, white water rafting,
and other outdoor activities,
the nation's capitol, the shoreline,
and many other popular destinations are also just a
short car ride away.
>> We have the rail trail.
I love to hike.
We have Cooper's Rock.
West Virginia, I think -- and I've been to most states
in the U.S. -- is certainly one
of the most beautiful states that we have.
>> Just a little further west,
is our other location in Cincinnati.
Cincinnati offers family activities,
an ever-expanding art scene, a foodies paradise,
several professional sports teams,
and a picturesque river region, with much to explore.
Its location also allows for exciting day or weekend trips.
>> By the quality of life perspective
and just everyday life kind of stuff,
I don't think you can really beat Cincinnati.
>> Exciting opportunities in occupational safety
and health are waiting for you.

>> Doing EIS at NIOSH seems to be one of the best-kept secrets.
