The FAES Academic Programs Student Scholarship provides tuition credits to self-funded students, non-NIH government employees, non-profit employees, and members of the general public who cannot obtain training funds for FAES Academic Programs courses. The scholarship is intended to support professional and career development by reducing the financial barrier for enrolling in a single credit-bearing FAES course per academic term. Applicants must demonstrate how the course will benefit their career or professional growth. The scholarship does not cover expenses beyond course tuition (e.g., textbooks, materials, or fees).
