Global Health Special Funding
The Program in Global Health Studies encourages all students to get involved with global health and international initiatives both in and outside the classroom. In hopes of facilitating student involvement with global health and internationally-minded programs, organizations, conferences, events, speakers, and initiatives, the Program in Global Health Studies offers some financial support.
Special Funding is defined as:
- support for expenses related to study abroad, including but not limited to: airfare, visas, inoculations, in-country living expenses, and expenses not covered by Northwestern tuition scholarships.
- support used to present at and/or attend global health-focused conferences and events.
- support to host and/or build new global health-related projects and initiatives on campus.
Funding is awarded on both an individual and student group basis, and while declared Global Health Studies majors and minors have priority, all undergraduate students are eligible to apply.
