Addressing the root causes of health inequality
Health Equity Scholars Program
We support junior scientists, practitioners, and policy advocates who are focused on health equity and social justice research.
HES Doctoral Programs
PhD and DrPH students from all departments and concentrations at the Bloomberg School can receive the HES award. Accepted students are nominated by their department for the award. Departments are required to discuss how the nominee demonstrates a commitment to equity, social justice, and leadership and also provide a mentoring plan for the nominee. A review committee ranks all nominees, and offers the award to top students.
