One Health scholarships

One Health scholarships are available. Application deadline Nov 15. 

The AGNR One Health Strategic (Improve Human, Animal, and Environmental Health) Initiative team is accepting nominations for AGNR students working on One Health projects. Students need to be nominated by a faculty member. We anticipate awards for one graduate student and two undergraduate students and be from $2,000 - $5,000, depending on the number of applications.

Applications should consist of the following:

  • 1-page letter by the nominating faculty member.
  • 1-page personal statement by the student
  • 2-page student resume
  • Student academic transcript.

Applications should be submitted as a single pdf file. Nominations will be evaluated based on the following:
1. How well the student's work and career goals align with AGNR's One Health areas of focus.
2. Financial needs of the student.
3. Academic record of the student.

Nominations are due by 11/15/2022!
Professors can nominate students by emailing Dr. Jon Moyle at jmoyle@umd.edu or Dr. Paul Leisnham at leisnham@umd.edu.
