The Winston Scholarship program recognizes excellence and achievement for students in master’s degree programs in health administration, health policy, and public health by providing scholarships. Winston Scholars also join a one-day symposium on health policy in Washington, DC.
The David A. Winston Health Policy Scholarship identifies and supports promising young people committed to a health policy-related master’s degree in any discipline, field, or profession from any school or program that is housed in an accredited college or university. We seek to increase the number and quality of individuals trained in these fields at the state and federal levels by awarding deserving students with financial support to further their education.
The scholarship program recognizes student excellence and achievement based on that student’s record and recommendations from faculty and colleagues. Scholarships will be offered to each selected student who demonstrates their potential to succeed in health policy, health administration, and/or health management at either the state or national level upon graduation from their degree program. This program is open to any student currently in their first year in an academic graduate program (for those in two year programs), or for those in longer programs, their next to final year, studying at any accredited college or university. U.S. citizenship is required.
