Emory Global Health Institute Student Opportunities
2021 Field
Scholars Awards Program
The Emory
Global Health Institute (EGHI) annually funds multidisciplinary teams of
students to conduct global health projects in collaboration with an Emory
faculty member and in-country partner organization every year. Emory students
with a minimum GPA of 3.0 are eligible to apply for Global Health Institute
Field Scholars Awards. Applicants must have an Emory and an in-country field
mentor, and they must partner with an in-country organization.
Multidisciplinary team proposals must include students from at least three
different Emory schools. Students should be enrolled at Emory the semester
following their field experience. Summer 2021
Project ideas and information about how to connect with the Emory Faculty
mentors leading them are available here.
Emory students who are awarded field scholarships receive up to $3,000. Student
teams are still forming, and the application deadline is Friday, February 19th.
Several teams are looking for Emory College students to complete their
multidisciplinary teams, so please take a look at all of the project ideas,
especially the Bahamas-based
project with One Eleuthera Foundation. For more information about all
projects and next steps, please visit the EGHI Field
Scholars website.
