Though most of your scholarship funding will probably come from your chosen college,

there are a handful of more general scholarships geared specifically toward students

from around the globe.

Available to applicants pursuing a Bachelor’s Degree in Environmental Health or Postgraduate Degree

in Environmental Health Sciences

Sponsored by:

National Environmental Health Association (NEHA) Logo American Academy of Sanitarians Logo

Both the National Environmental Health Association (NEHA) and the American Academy of

Sanitarians (AAS) have established education in environmental health (EH) as one of their principle

goals. NEHA and AAS believe that structured education at the undergraduate and graduate levels is

important to an individual’s successful professional development in the EH field and that continuing

education is a vital component in an EH professional’s continued career growth.

As a result, the NEHA Board of Directors established a scholarship fund in 1984 that began with a gift

of $1000 from Dr. A. Harry Bliss, a NEHA Past-President, and personal donations from NEHA Board

Members. Because of their strong belief in scholarship programs, AAS also made a financial donation

to the NEHA program, allowing NEHA to increase the number of undergraduate scholarships

awarded. As the program grew, NEHA offered scholarships to both undergraduate and graduate

students pursuing studies in the EH field. In 1996, NEHA and AAS decided to jointly fund

undergraduate and graduate EH scholarships and call them the NEHA/AAS Scholarships. Funding for

the scholarships is continually obtained from donations, proceeds from association fund-raisers and

NEHA/AAS budget commitments. By offering the NEHA/AAS Scholarships to eligible undergraduate

and graduate students, NEHA and AAS hope to positively contribute to the future of Environmental

Health.
