Every year, the Department of Global Health offers funding and fellowships to graduate and professional students at the University of Washington to help support in-depth fieldwork experiences in global health.
Each year the UW Department of Global Health is able to provide partial to full funding to recruit top applicants. In addition to financial support, some recipients also receive mentorship and real-world experience through research assistant positions. For the 2023-24 academic year, 22 outstanding graduate students received funding to support their studies, 21 of whom are highlighted here. Learn more about this impressive cohort, including their journeys to arrive at UW and the impact they hope to have on the field of global health.
I am currently a first-year student in the Doctor of Global Health Leadership and Practice (DrGH) program at the Department of Global Health (DGH) at the University of Washington (UW). I work as a research assistant in the INSIGHT project at I-TECH. I have also joined the UW SEAL team to learn and support public health activities in different communities.
