2013 Spring ERHD Scholarships – Now Taking Essay Submissions

The ERHD program has been fortunate to receive public health training grant support from the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services from the very start of our program. Today, I am pleased to announce that we have been awarded a new public health trainingship grant to support graduate students’ tuition for the ERHD courses.

The ERHD Scholarships are available to full-time or part-time graduate students with an interest in health disparities who will enroll and complete the East Carolina University ERHD graduate certificate online program. Candidates for the $1,000 scholarships are asked to submit a 500 – 1000 word essay describing their interests in ethnic and rural health disparities. Essays are due by September 24th, 2012. The ERHD Scholarship Committee will evaluate all applicants’ essays. A limited number of scholarships are available.

Please submit all materials to:
